Driven Man Book - Description
He began his career as a dyslexic accountant, keeps a low profile and dislikes publicity and has yet been called ‘the Richard Branson of motor sport’. Meet David Richards, the quintessential Driven Man. This book is the first to tell Richards’ life story.
Author Alan Henry takes readers from Richards’ first competition as a rally navigator to his World Rally Championship as team principal for Subaru. As Richards stands poised to take Ford’s Aston Martin team to the GT Sports Car racing championship, and to take his British American Racing Formula 1 team to the Grand Prix, we see firsthand the determination and character that have made the near-miraculous a real possibility.
A three-time World Rally Champion and a multi-millionaire who has made his rally car preparation company a success on three continents, David Richards emerges here as a very private man with a very large public presence—and a key to the inside workings of the most glamorous and complex of international sports.
Prodrive has offices in Banbury, Warwick, Milton Keynes, Australia, Germany, Thailand and USA and is worth in excess of £110 million. Company ranked 66 in Europe 500 honors 2004 recognized for job creation and growth.
