The Chariot Makers: The Definitive Text & Audiobook Companion
Steve Matchett, world champion Formula 1 mechanic turned praised television broadcaster and successful author is trapped overnight in New York, in a fogbound JFK airport along with three fellow motor racing enthusiasts. With no sign of the fog letting up, talk inevitably turns to Formula 1. During the course of their night, and with conversation fueled by regular trips to the departure lounge bar, our three protagonists, drawing on Matchett's encyclopedic knowledge of grand prix engineering and F1 paddock life decide to piece together the perfect Formula 1 race car. In straightforward, clear and concise language, Steve Matchett explains how the various F1 teams have arrived at their current state-of-the-art designs, and exactly how a championship winning grand prix car is assembled. Originally published in hardback in 2004, and reading as a novel, The Chariot Makers is Steve Matchett's third book, along with Life in the Fast Lane and The Mechanic's Tale, this compelling and insightful story forms the final installment of the author's entertaining and highly acclaimed Formula 1 trilogy. This brand new digital edition means that for the first time since their original release, all three titles in this fascinating series are available to enjoy on Amazon Kindle.
