It's the age old question in Formula 1. What would you rather have the best car or the best driver? The answer is Adrian Newey, the best designer. How to Build a Car will tell the story of Adrian Newey's unrivalled 35 year career in Formula One through the prism of the incredible cars he has designed, the drivers he worked alongside and the races he's been involved in.
Understood to be the one true engineering genius in F1, Newey's cars are the most sought after commodity in the sport. He has designed cars for the likes of Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost, Damon Hill, David Coulthard, Mika Hakkinen, Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel, has won ten championship and over 80 Grand Prix. His career has been marked by unbelievable sustained success but also deep tragedy he was at Williams when Ayrton Senna crashed and died at Imola in 1994. Beautifully illustrated with Adrian's beautiful and never-before-seen drawings of the cars, How to Build a Car will be a must for any Formula One fan and for anyone who's ever wanted to understand how a car actually works.
