It's a different picture at national and club level, where poor preparation can blight potential. Here, however, a doctor who competes as a rally driver offers expert information on all aspects of physical and mental fitness, including diet, training, safety and medical regulations.

After hearing about this book through my trainers, Andy Blow and Vo2, I knew it was going to be something great. Then it was a huge honour for me when they asked me to contribute my own racing experiences. Once I received the final copy it turned out to be a fountain of knowledge and insight in all the aspects of racing even for me with almost 2 decades of racing during my life. I thoroughly recommend this to all levels of drivers, as well as racing enthusiasts, for the most up to date information inside.
