As the 1975 season ended, James Hunt appeared finished in Formula One. He had no drive lined up for 1976 and his career seemed to be slipping away. In stark contrast, Niki Lauda, fresh from winning the 1975 world championship, was on top of the world with a full Ferrari contract and an offer for an even richer deal stretching into future seasons. Lauda was widely expected to claim the title again in 1976.
Almost no one believed Hunt could become a contender. Then everything changed. Emerson Fittipaldi unexpectedly walked away from his McLaren contract, creating the opening Hunt desperately needed. With support from his friend John Hogan at Marlboro, Hunt seized the chance and stepped into the vacant seat. Fittipaldi had unknowingly set in motion one of the greatest rivalries in the history of sport.
What followed was an unforgettable battle between Hunt and Lauda for the 1976 Formula One world championship, a sixteen race showdown that came down to a single point. Both men risked everything in pursuit of glory.

Wonderful book. Well worth the read!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book as it brought back to life from memory the battle of 1976 for the F1 crown. The text relies heavily on the McLaren side and less so the Ferrari side. Seen through the lens of today Hunt looks like a sex addict but back in those days things were different. Lauda looks like the cold pragmatist he was always portrayed as both during his F1 career & afterwards when he held various managerial/consultancy roles with different teams. The photos by Rainer Schlegelmilch are stunning as one would expect and the vivid colours & sponsor logos make todays car look sterile in comparison. Overall a great book for your money & collection.
It is one of the great book that you start reading and cannot stop until is finish
