5.0 out of 5 stars
Indespensable Book. An insight into the mind of Schumi.,
By
This review is from: Michael Schumacher: Driven to Extremes (Paperback)
From the moment I picked this book up I knew I was addicted to it. No other book I have read on Schumi comes close to this.This book truly focuses on the mind, psychology and dicipline of the greatest driver of this era. It also explains the relationships between himself and the people around him in fine detail. For those who just love F1 or are Schumi fans, you have to read this one. I wouldn't have given it five stars since I am a critical person if the book was not that good. Go ahead, read it.

A real insight into the real Michael Schumacher,
By A Customer
This review is from: Michael Schumacher: Driven to Extremes (Paperback)
This book provides a real insight into Michael Schumacher's life. It talks about his feelings both on and off the racing circuit, the importance of family life to him. It also goes into great detail about that controversial crash Jerez 1997. For those people who don't like Michael this book i'm sure will change your mind, you'll definitely realise he's just human, like the rest of us. Once you start reading this book you'll find it hard to put down.

4.0 out of 5 stars
An interesting insight into one of the greatest!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Michael Schumacher: The Quest for Redemption (Hardcover)
This book is excellently presented and written with interesting photos and attachments; however, as always with Michael, we are never quite allowed to learn the true essence of what makes him tick. Perhaps the reason he is so successful is because he gives so little away, and reveals neither his strengths or weaknesses to anybody, probably not even his wife! This book takes you really close to Michael Schumacher, and when you finally think you're beginning to understand him, it pulls you away faster than a bungee jump off the Golden Gate Bridge. At the end of the day, we'll make our own minds up about Jerez; if we like him we'll continue to support him, and if we don't, we'll dish him! The book was excellent; worth a look for the Formula 1 insight whether you like the guy or not! Looking forward to the next one James!
