Usually ships in 24 hours 『With 17 major championships—including three world titles and five European wins—Martin Hines is the world’s most successful kart driver. Despite opposition from racing purists, he pioneered the sport of superkart racing after founding Zip Karts in 1964, a company that is now the industry’s most influential organization. Martin remained at the forefront of sport innovations throughout his career by developing such competitions as indoor karting and by facilitating drivers on a small budget. In this engaging account, Martin recalls his decades of success in vivid detail, including his discovery and nurturing of such F1 stars as David Coulthard and Lewis Hamilton. He also reveals the personal life behind his kart king persona, including the tragic two-year period in which he lost his daughter, father, and mother, and was told his own life was threatened by a tumor. Packed with heart-racing action and colorfulanecdotes, this is the fast-lane life of one of racing’s greatest figures. 』

(For hardcore Minardi F1 fans only...)  『I had high hopes for Simon Vigar's "Forza Minardi," and although extremely well researched it ultimately disappoints.
The interviews are interesting, but at least half the book is devoted to the last five years of the team when it was owned by Paul Stoddart. As a result, that only leaves the other half to cover the 1985 to 2000 period and the early years in Formula Two! Also for a book at this price point I expected higher production values. Produced in India, the book design, layout, and overall printing quality is pretty poor.
Unless you are a really hardcore Minardi fan, I'd suggest passing on Vigar's attempt to sum up the racing team's origins&20-year constructor history in F1.』
(A different take on F1, a must have)     『If you ever wondered what "Star Wars" would be like through the eyes of the storm trooper who gets shot in one of those epic battle scenes and what "Ben Hur" would have been like if another greased up gladiator had been the main protagonist, then maybe you are the person with enough eye for detail for this book.
Forza Minardi is a meticulously researched history of Formula 1's perennial backmarkers Minardi, a team which kept on challenging the great and mighty at the pinnacle of motor sport for more than 20 years. In all those years, that's 346 Grand Prixs, the team did neither take a single victory nor ever finish on the podium. In short, it is the history of the also-rans, the cars TV commentators would mix up with the leaders rather than really speak about them.
Still, there is a story to tell, a story that some may find much more interesting than the monotonous PR-talk that comes as standard in post race interviews nowadays. There is much to be said about Minardi, but bland they were not.
Simon Vigar's book takes you through 20 years of Formula 1 history, from the turbo days until the days of stand off between the FIA and manufacturers. The book is full with amusing anecdotes such as soft natured team founder Gian Carlo Minardi admitting to "running after Ron Dennis with a hammer".
This book is highly recommended to all of those who had a soft spot for the Minardi Team when it was still in F1, but also to the motor sport fan who would love a different take on motor racing. Your favourite story, told in a different way.』 『After 20 years of glorious‘failure’, the best-loved team in Formula One is consigned to the history books, and it deserves one of its own. Minardi had a successful time in Formula Two until the tiny Italian outfit was ready to hit the big time in 1985. It somehow survived in F1’s shark-infested waters as bigger teams (Lotus, Arrows, Tyrrell) were dragged under. They have a truly international fan-base and are the ‘second team’ of most F1 devotees. Minardi is held in such affection as everyone loves the plucky underdog – Minardi’s annual budget would have lasted one month at the other Italian team up the road. Yet, from its plant in Faenza near Bologna, Minardi has produced cars that qualify, sometimes score points and often lead the way in their technology. Gian Carlo Minardi also developed a reputation as a fabulous talent-spotter – Fisichella, Trulli, Webber and the youngest ever World ChampionAlonso all started their F1 careers with Minardi. For the last five years, Minardi was owned by controversial Australian tycoon Paul Stoddart. Cast as David against the Goliath of F1’s governing body, Stoddart constantly hit the headlines as he tried to get a more equal share of the sport’s billions. Ultimately, he failed and Red Bull has now bought the team. Despite a petition of 15,000 names, the Minardi name has vanished from the F1 grid and true motorheads miss it. This is the one and only inside account, with exclusive, comprehensive interviews with bosses, drivers and engineers. 140unique photos complete this revalationary tale. 』 relatred Items 『 Forza Minardi!: The Inside Story of the Little Team Which Took on the Giants of F1 >

『This book describes Juan-Manuel Fangio's youth in Buenos Aires, his first steps in motor racing in Argentina, and then his move to Europe where he scooped all Formula One honors.Like Fangio himself, this illustrated biography also delivers comprehensive results, featuring several hundred photographs and car drawings. Until last year, Juan-Manuel Fangio was the sole owner of the Formula One World Titles record, winning it a remarkable five times (a record only just now equaled by Michael Schumacher). His unique style is much admired by Schumacher himself, who admits that drivers of the past were in another world.』

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review(Hoedies vlamgat techs)     『This book brings back good memories, of the days in the bush.I recommend this to the techs that were at Hoedspruit to get one, its like wearing that 1Sqd badge and having worked on the worlds smallest Supersonic fighter especially the AZs. [...] TomTom ONE 130 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator (Factory Refurbished)』(An eye opener about skilled pilots)    『Little was public known about the skills of the SAAF pilots and their training. This book is an eye opener on the skills, professionalism and training of the SA Airforce. If you thought that no airforce in Africa is "third-world", then this book show that you are mistaken. Air-to-air combat, Groundstrikes far away from homebase into the hornets nest, SAMs chasing your tail, AAA-fire from hell, odds that are against you 100-to-1 -- you find it all in this book.』(Outstanding!)     『A great book.If you have any intrest in air combat this book is a must read!It is well written and has a wealth of information on the Mirage F1 aircraft.Brigadier Lord knows his stuff!This book is the best book I have read about the South African Air Force.Vlamgat is a great value for the money it is filled with outstanding photos(many in color)and provides much hard to find info on the aircraft and operations of the SAA.』『"...Perhaps it is the early morning chill that awakens them. They are mostly young and enthusiastic - but combat is a maturing process that can change a youth into an adult overnight. ...At last they have suited up and completed the briefing. The weapons are loaded and the aircraft are servicable to fly. The pilots forget the anxieties and tension of the early morning hours. ...The peace of the morning is shattered by the rising crescendo of the engine noise. ...Then they are rolling into a steep dive upon the waiting target. Their hands inside their gloves are sweating; their mouths are dry." Vlamgat is the gripping story of the South African Mirage F1 jet fighter pilots in action during the tense years of the bush war. Their experiences are authentically told with accuracy, humor and pathos - by an author who writes from the cockpit.』

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review(a fascinating insider view of F1)     『Since Damon Hill retired from the grand prix circuit and writes for a certain very popular English motorsport magazine we know that the guy can write. What we learn from this book is that he already had that gift when he was still driving! The book was made in 1998 when Damon was on his last F1 stint with the Jordan team, during that emotional year when Jordan scored a historic 1-2 in Spa. The F1-educated reader who knows what happened in '99 (Damon fired by Eddie Jordan because he was consistently outperformed by team-mate Heinz-Harald Frentzen) will find his remarks on the team a poignant read. The book touches all the major aspects of Formula One motorsport: technology, image, media pressure, professional rivalry, the fear, money and fame. Damon also talks about his famous father Graham Hill and "his" race: Monte Carlo (GH won Monte Carlo 5 times and was only fairly recently surpassed by Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher in this feat). Damon explores how having a famous race driver as a father influenced his own career path and attitude towards the sport. The book is overall very well crafted. Damon's text is supported and enhanced by the superb photography of Keith Sutton, England's premier F1 photographer. Overall a very good read and a pleasure to the eye, certainly a must-have for every serious F1-fan, even you Schumacher fans: Damon has some very interesting things to say about his famous rivalry with Michael!』(Damon Hill - like his father before him...)     『Damon Hill is seen by many fans as the "loser" champion, the champion who had it, he had the drive, he had the car, he had the intelligence, he had the motivation and dedication, but there was Schumacher in the way, as there was Clark that came Graham's way. It must be said that, even if the 1995 season, climax of the 90's, is most remembered and pictures Damon's defeat, Damon's 96 title is thorougly deserved and well acomplished. Damon deserves much respect for his acomplishmnet in the sport; even during his last and terrible f1 season, 1999, where he was outshined by his very fast team-mate Heinz Harald Frentzen, Damon was not to be looked pathetic next to him - instead he was to be held tremendous respect and would not receive any contempt from any TRUE F1 fan. Damon was not the fastest driver ever, but he holds his place among the other World Champions and stands as one of the Lords of this sport.』(Damon Hill - like his father before him...)     『Damon Hill is seen by many fans as the "loser" champion, the champion who had it, he had the drive, he had the car, he had the intelligence, he had the motivation and dedication, but there was Schumacher in the way, as there was Clark that came Graham's way.

Damon was not the fastest driver ever, but he holds his place among the other World Champions and stands as one of the Lords of this sport.』(So what does a F1 Driver think? Well, here you go!)     『From the moment I recieved this book, I could tell a lot of time and energy (money) went into making it. The cover is made of a nice, almost sliky paper material, which just makes you feel like it is worth the price. However, the real treat is inside. Damon Hill is a very eloquent writer, and makes some very personal revelations. If you ever wanted to know what makes an F1 World Champion tick, here's your chance. His gives his feelings about his early years driving with legends such as Aryton Senna, and Alain Prost, as well as his current on-going rivaly with M. Schumacher. Also, the photographs taken by Keith Sutton are an added bonus. As Damon said in his book, "So here it is. A book about all that (F1 life). But you can just look at the pictures if you prefer..." Yes! You really can; the pictures are fabulous. It's a shame about his retirement, and i actually would have felt that this book would have been better off, if he retired first and then published it, so that his writing wouldn't be so restrained. Even so, it gives the most comprehensive first-person's view of the things that transpire in the world of F1. Personally, I am a Damon Hill fan, so I can recommend this book to all those who also follow this "gentlemen's racer."』『This is the behind-the-scenes story of Damon Hill's Formula One World Championship challenge. From the season-opening Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne through to the grand finale in Japan where the nine month seaon ends, Hill charts the emotions and excitement of the 16-race Grand Prix circus. He describes the strains and pressures behind the garage doors, the massive effort required to revive his title challenge with his new Jordan team, and the fears and thrills which punctuated his progress. From the clamour and glamour of the pit lane to the privacy of the motor home, Hill recounts his battles with Schumacher, Couthard, Villeneuve and others for the 1998 Formula One World Championship.』

Even the book jacket, a delightful shot of a Ferrari (what else?) speeding across the cover, instead of a series of portraits of the F1 drivers (as was the case with 2003 "The Season") is an improvement. The improvements are not confined to just the cover. This comes somewhat as a relief, as in my review of "The Season", I swore that I would not buy another annual of its ilk, but this year, I had more money than good sense and once again purchased the book to go along with the customary "Autocourse".
This Annual is published by the Haymarket Publishing Group (a glance at the credits page shows input from Matt Bishop and Stephane Samson of F1 Racing as well as Mark Hughes from AutoSport) and Haynes instead of FOM, the publishers of the now defunct F1 Magazine. Despite this, Bernie Ecclestone still contributes the foreword.
Eddie Jordan looks at each of the drivers and gives a brief assessment of how they rank against each other. There is also a section which looks at the technical aspects of the cars of 2004, with the Technical Directors of all 10 teams making a list for "Car of the Year". There is also seperate article with a focus on the Ferrari F2004. Additionally, following the race roundups, there is a season roundup of technical developments for each team although the coverage for the lesser lights (Jag/Jordan/Minardi) is slight. There are additional team statistics (the usual: wins, starts, points and so on) and technical details of chassis/engine as well as key staff for each of the teams.
Jenson Button, Juan Pablo Montoya, Fernando Alonso, and Kimi Raikkonen all contribute a two page spread discussing their own seasons and performances. The race roundups are OK, similar to the style of F1 Racing, with a little input from key technical figures such as Pat Symonds of Renault, David Pitchford of Jaguar and Montoya again. The graphics presented for each race are nice, and there is a sentence or two from each race driver summing up their performances. The race roundups are probably the biggest improvement from the previous year's annual.
The Test drivers have not been neglected: there are a couple of articles dedicated to the "Lost Boys", as well as a statistics section- did you know it was not Ferrari that covered the most testing mileage for 2004, but Toyota? And Williams were second?
On the downside, I note there is some advertising material, and it seems to me to be more advertising than in the past. Still it is not such a huge issue for me. More indepth discussion from other drivers apart from those already contributing articles as mentioned previously would have been nice- at least the 2003 edition did discuss each individual driver.
Overall, this annual, while probably not a serious threat (oh, how I long for an annual to rival the 2001 and 2002 editions of F1 Annual) for Hazelton and Autocourse, does offer a genuine alternative for those who are tiring of the Autocourse product.』『Here is the full, in-depth story of the 2005 Formula 1 season, told by the drivers and team personnel involved. Superb insider content allows the personalities involved to shed light on many of the season's headlines and incidents, and the clearly presented statistics provide a comprehensive reference source for the future. Packed with behind-the-scenes detail and stunning photographs, this is an essential edition to any Formula 1 enthusiast's bookshelf.』
