Starting from the Back of the Grid: Misadventures Inside Formula One's Flying Circus is a humorous and endearing account of how an academic flop with a prodigious talent for getting into embarrassing situations found success in the glamorous world of Formula One.
The author, who has worked as a TV producer and occasional cameraman, shares his distinctive perspective on F1's inner workings, up close and personal with its greatest drivers and most intriguing behind-the-scenes personalities. He recounts his own comedic career path from humble beginnings to high-profile encounters with motorsport legends and A-list celebrities.
With an insider's eye for the sport's rivalries, tragedies, and scandals, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone who loves Formula One and has a sense of humour.
