ABOUT
This is a definitive autobiography of Australia's three-time Formula 1 World Champion Driver. It is illustrated with unique photographs and memorabilia from Sir Jack Brabham's personal collection.
Sir Jack Brabham has been described as the personification of the great Australian sportsman: relentless and often irresistible in competition, yet faultlessly friendly, approachable and a genuinely "good bloke" after the battle. He is certainly the greatest and most successful racing driver-cum-engineer the world has ever seen.
Sir Jack was the first racing driver ever to win a Formula 1 race of any international status in a car bearing his own name, the first to win a World Championship in such a car and the only racing driver ever to become Formula 1 World Champion Driver and Formula 1 World Champion Constructor. Sir Jack won the F1 Drivers' World Championship title no fewer than three times, in 1959, 1960 and 1966, with his third title achieved driving cars carrying his own name which were designed by his friend and business partner Ron Tuaranac and built by their own companies, Motor Racing Developments and the Brabham Racing Organisation.
In these pages Sir Jack tells his own racing story in his inimitably engaging, frank and open style, recounting the successes, failures, triumphs and occasional tragedies of a long and hectic motor-sporting life.
This is a unique personal account of an extraordinary motor racing life, lived to the full and played the only way a true Australian knows ...to win.
