About this ebook

'Formula 1 is as complex as it is competitive, existing in a world which has built up a language almost unique to itself. Jennie has been working the Formula 1 pitlanes and paddocks of the world since before many of today’s superstars had even started karting. She knows the sport inside out. There’s nobody better to take you on this alphabetic adventure through the greatest sport in the world.' Will Buxton

'This is a great read for old and new fans of F1, one that will inform, educate and entertain you. A truly comprehensive guide to Formula One - from A to Z (and most importantly, to B).' Valtteri Bottas

'Jennie's job is to go where angels fear to tread. Being in the pit lane and on the grid or even in the F1 paddock is not for the faint of heart. It takes courage and a lot of hard work to know your stuff and ask the difficult questions in F1. Jennie Gow is that gal!' – Damon Hill
