Description

By: Christopher Hilton .

In October 2003 Michael Schumacher won his sixth World Championship, beating Juan-Manuel Fangio's record that many thought would last for ever. As Schumacher crossed the line in Japan the big questions could no longer be avoided: how did he achieve this triumph and where does he really stand in terms of all- time greatness?

Using many original interviews, the updated new edition of this important book probes deep into the Schumacher phenomenon, analysing the historic 2003 season in detail and dissecting key moments in his career, with full coverage of the 2001 and 2002 seasons that propelled him to the threshold of the record.

It broadens to a fascinating examination of Schumacher by, among others, Sir Jackie Stewart and Sir Stirling Moss, and also reveals another side to the apparently cold-minded racer: his charity work for children in Sarajevo, Africa and South America.

There is a description and photograph of each of his 70 Grand Prix wins — which represent another absolute record — and discussion of how he and the team assembled by Jean Todt were able to make Ferrari the mightiest force in Grand Prix racing.

Christopher Hilton — author of Inside the Mind of the Grand Prix Driver — has written a number of well-received biographies of Formula 1 stars including Memories of Ayrton, Juan Pablo Montoya and Murray Walker: The very last word. Rainer Schlegelmilch, the leading German photographer, has followed Schumacher since his debut in 1991 and here provides a superb portfolio of intimate moments and dramatic action, culminating in the nervous Suzuka afternoon in 2003.
