Description
The Benetton Rebels of Formula 1: A Story of Unconventional Success Damien Smith's book tells the entire history of the Benetton team, from its humble beginnings as a sponsor to its rise as a dominant force in Formula 1. With insightful contributions from key participants, this is the first comprehensive account of the team's 1986-2001 journey. From its early days as a BMW-powered team to its later success with Renault engines, Benetton defied expectations and achieved great results. The team's most successful period came in the mid-1990s, when Michael Schumacher led them to back-to-back World Championship titles. This book explores the key moments and decisions that made this achievement possible. With a focus on the people and events behind the Benetton team's success, Smith's book provides a unique perspective on one of Formula 1's most fascinating periods.
