About this ebook

Michael Schumacher is the greatest F1 driver of his generation. At the time of his retirement, he held records for the most wins, pole positions and podium finishes, and he still holds the record for the highest number of fastest laps. He won two world championships with Benetton before moving to Ferrari where he won their first Championship in 21 years in 2000. He would go on to win the next four consecutive titles. However, in 2013 he sustained a traumatic brain injury whilst skiing. He was induced into a six-month coma and hasn't been seen in public since.

Ferrari insider Luca Dal Monte will unpack the stories behind a living legend, from his humble upbringing to his performance with Benetton and his post Ferrari years, to his time with the Scuderia, interviewing his engineers and other drivers to get inside the mind of a man that pushed his cars to the limit.

In the words of the author Luca Dal Monte, 'This book is for the fans who were there, fans who've heard about and seen the era, and the fans who want to get to know the man with the name: Michael Schumacher.'
