À propos de ce titre

Random House presents the audiobook edition of The Mechanic, written and read by Marc 'Elvis' Priestley.

In the high octane atmosphere of the Formula One pit lane, the spotlight is most often on the superstar drivers. And yet, without the technical knowledge, competitive determination and outright obsession from his garage of mechanics, no driver could possibly hope to claim a spot on the podium. These are the guys who make every World Champion, and any mistakes can have critical consequences.

That's not to say the F1 crew is just a group of highly skilled technical engineers, tweaking machinery in wind tunnels and crunching data through high spec computers. These boys can seriously let their hair down. Whether it be parties on luxury yachts in Monaco or elaborate photo opportunities in gravity-defying aeroplanes, this is a world which thrills on and off the track.

Join McLaren's former Number One mechanic, Marc 'Elvis' Priestley as he tours the world, revealing some of Formula One's most outrageous secrets and the fiercest rivalries, all fuelled by the determination to win.

This is Formula One as you've never seen it before.

Avis de la critique

The principle is sound, as are the author’s credentials… [A] genuine attempt to reflect the day-to-day realities of a relentless life on the road. And it is relayed by someone who doesn’t feel duty-bound to toe the corporate line
Here we are privileged to have Marc’s take on the Formula 1 world from the inside… Marc was lucky enough to work alongside David Coulthard, Mika Hakkinen, Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton, among others, but it is his close relationship with Kimi Raikkonen that we gain most insight into as we read… In short, it is a must read for any F1 fan, and I can highly recommend (Sarah Merritt)

Inside-Geschichten 1998-2008. Auch heute noch spannend...oder eben gerade darum. Die High-End-Jahre von McLaren mit all ihren Facetten, den Skandalen, den alten neuen Fahrern. Authentisch erzählt.
Einfach ein Muss für jede(n), der sich nur annähernd mit F1 befasst.

Sehr interessant

Very entertaining stories from Elvis in his F1 mechanic years. As I‘ve watched pretty much all the races he adressed in this book, i was surprised to hear what all went on behind the scenes. Thank you for this gift to all F1 fans.

Must hear for any F1 Fan
