The Toleman Story Last Romantics in Formula 1 (HB) - Description
Small, unfashionable, short of money – and the last of its
kind to become a force in Grand Prix racing. The story of Toleman is not only
fascinating and improbable, it has never been told before.
This was the team that took Ayrton Senna into Formula 1, to which he responded
by creating a masterpiece of movement at Monaco. It is still talked about.
This was the team that launched Derek Warwick, one of the most popular and
accomplished men in British motor sport. This was the team that brought Rory
Byrne, Ferrari’s design genius, to sudden prominence. This was the team that
enabled Pat Symonds, Renault’s race tactician, to construct his career.
And this is the whole story. Lavishly illustrated, The Toleman Story – Last
Romantics in Formula 1 retraces the narrative from the very beginning and
covers the dramas, heartbreaks and triumphs of each racing season in detail. It
is full of poignant memories never published before, as well as hilarious
anecdotes and penetrating insights.
