    About this audiobook

    Grand Prix Racing during the 1990’s was among one of the best era’s of the sport. Not only did you have great F1 drivers & loud F1 engines (like the old V12’s) which not only excited fans, but, the sport was full of colourful characters and it was an era before people were afraid of watching their words. This book therefore captures some forgotten, yet fascinating short stories from that time that will make you laugh, cry or even just ponder. They include:


    Chapter 1          What Do The Most Successful and Worst Car of 1994 Have in Common?


    Chapter 2           Funny Stories From An F1 Mechanic


    Chapter 3           Brundle at McLaren


    Chapter 4          Mansell’s 1994 Comeback

     

    Chapter 5          Working Within Benetton During the 1990’s


    Chapter 6           Unraced Projects of the 1994 F1 Season & an insight into Pacific Grand Prix racing (written in conjunction with Jasper Heijmans)


    Chapter 7          Schumacher’s Ferrari Controversies


    Chapter 8          Schumacher’s 1994 Ligier Test


    Chapter 9           Herbert at Benetton


    Chapter 10        Lehto at Benetton


    Chapter 11         The Flying Dutchman After 1994


    Chapter 12         How the Schumacher v Hill Feud Developed


    Chapter 13         Paul Tracy’s Benetton Test, September 1994


    Chapter 14        Memories of Imola 1994 - by Mike Fairholme


    Chapter 15        Roland Ratzenberger – 25 Years On


    Chapter 16         Ayrton Senna – His Final Hours


    Chapter 17        My Opinion on What Caused Ayrton Senna’s Crash?


    Chapter 18         Did a Return to Simpler Cars in 1994 Contribute to the Accidents?


    Chapter 19        1994 – A Brief Overview of F1’s Darkest Season 


     

    Since 2015 I’ve been researching all the books, internet sources and magazines (Autosport, F1 News and Motor Sport) covering 1990’s F1. Furthermore I’ve interviewed various key figures employed by Benetton, Ford Electronics and Williams. In addition, I’ve studied all the on track action from time – simply because I love reliving that era of F1. This book & its short stories listed above are the fruits of all that hard work and research.


    As a devoted Formula 1 fan, I thought I knew everything about the sport from the 1990’s before starting this project. But since interviewing those involved it soon became apparent how much had yet to be made public. I’ve resigned from my day job purely to write this book. That is h

      An Important Belated Thank You

      I never got to meet John Webb. More’s the pity, because I didn’t get the chance to say thank you. And there’s a lot I have to thank him for. If not for Webb and all that he did at Brands Hatch and beyond, I probably wouldn’t be sitting at my desk rig

      The content is very interesting and I learned things that I didn't know. The author has done a very credible job with his research. The downfall of this audiobook is the narration. The author reads it himself and unfortunately, he doesn't have the vocal skills. His enunciation is horrible, slurring, lisping and just generally making some words almost impossible to understand. Even taking in to account that the British and US have different ways of pronouncing some words, he butchers some words very badly. It is also clear that he didn't practice much before they recorded. I really don't intend this review to be a hatchet job on the author, because he produced a very interesting book, but I suggest that he doesn't do the narration for the next one. I fully intend to check out his other books, but it looks like he narrates those as well, so I will just read them.
