As lead presenter for Sky Sports Formula One live coverage Simon Lazenby is at the centre of Grand Prix raceweekend action. With a foreword by legendary motorsport driver Damon Hill in this book Simon takes us off camera to give us exclusive behindthescenes access to the people who power this multibillionpound sport.Drawing on over a decades accumulated firsthand knowledge and connections across the paddock Simon talks to key experts and professionals within the teams and the overall organisation who each reveal how they operate how they compete the skills theyve learnt to navigate the challenges they face.Among the insiders who let us into their world are Max Verstappens race engineer whose voice we hear on the drivers cockpit radio communicating key strategic decisions and the Aston Martin mechanic who oversees the team responsible for assembling the F1 car from 14500 different components before each GP. Theres the performance coach who has to ensure that the drivers necks can withstand the equivalent of 24kg of weight helmet head G force and Giorgio Piola whose sketches of F1 cars have been revered since the late 1960s.
