No driver has ever made such an instant impact on the sport of Formula 1 racing as Lewis Hamilton. The first black grand prix driver, his astonishing level of success in his rookie season together with his swash-buckling, attacking style has created a sensation.

He created drama at the racetrack and in his personal life, living the American Dream several times over before he died a violent and mysterious death at the age of 46.

Ci sono piloti che vincono, altri che restano nella Storia. Ma c'è un solo pilota che nel ricordo fa ancora battere il cuore. Ayrton Senna è stato l'ultimo mito di un'era romantica e sentimentale.

Reggeva l'aura del predestinato, serbava la malinconia dell'eroe solitario, coltivava il fascino irresistibile di chi è di tutti senza appartenere mai a nessuno, offriva il profilo al destino che si stava compiendo. Raccontarlo oggi - scartando la banale contabilità dei trionfi - significa tornare a recitare un atto di fede.

Driven: The Men Who Made Formula One tells how a small group of extraordinary men transformed Formula One from a niche sport played out on primitive tracks surrounded by hay bales and grass verges into a £1 billion circus performing in vast theatres of entertainment all over the world.
