Since 1994 Michael Schumacher has dominated Grand Prix, winning the FIA World championship in five of the nine seasons. In 2001/2002 he broke almost every motor racing record and is the most successful Formula One driver of all time. This book reveals the real Michael Schumacher through extensive first person material as well as a narrative by Sabine Kehm, a journalist, colleague and friend of Schumacher. Readers will learn about Schumacher's past, the secrets of his extraordinary success, his family, his view of other drivers and the state of F1, his opinion of controversial races and drivers, and will be given an insider's view of Ferrari.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
Schumacher receives full-colour, large-format, glossy hardback treatment. All that is surprising about this exercise in contemporary sporting hagiography is that it hasn't happened before. Like David Beckham, Schumacher inspires devotion from converts and deep loathing from heathen unbelievers. This is not a book for unbelievers, but it will enthral and delight Schumacher's fans. It is full of high quality photographs and promises plenty of revelations about the private life of the man behind the wheel. But not so many, presumably, that Schumacher's considerable mystique and charisma are utterly dissipated. The Ebury team, as usual, has produced a book finished to exemplary standards: the Ferrari of consumer publishing.
