'Who are the three best karters I ever saw? Not three, two. Ayrton Senna and Jenson Button' Paul Lemmens, owner of the Genk kart track.
Product Description
Jenson Button has been winning races since he was eight years old. In this autobiography he describes what it's like to be weighed down by the burdens of other's expectations as he works his way up the grid in the hard world of Formula One. Finding himself racing in Formula One only weeks after his 20th birthday, Button found himself thrust into the turbulent world of the ambitious BMW-Williams team as the rookie partner of world champion Michael Shumacher's promising brother Ralf. Already tagged by a hungry media as the next Ayrton Senna, he was going to sink without trace, or fight for his corner. This is a first-person account not only of the British star's first season and the career which led him to such a dramatic opportunity, but also of the reasons why his suceeding year demanded a switch to the Benetton-Renault team and how he fared.

This book is very informative and gives you a good insight into the life of a formula 1 driver and what it takes to get there. I never realised that Jenson Button was such a good racing driver until I read this book which really does take you on the rollercoaster of his career.
