Pirelli World Rallying: No. 17 (Hardcover)

Packed with information on what rally fans love best--the thrills and spills of racing around dirt tracks, on the edges of sheer cliffs and even in thick snow--this book is a must for anyone seriously into the sport. Well-written and informative articles on subjects such as the complicated set-up of the cars, a breakdown of each Rally by driver Carlos Sainz, interviews with the stars, plus a bumper stage-by-stage review of the 1998 season and all the stats to go with it, make this book an essential addition to the collection.

The only drawback is the fact that the book is peppered with advertisements. The pictures are clear, if a little tedious--once you've seen one car three feet off the ground after coming up over a hill, you've seen them all. Even so, small criticisms of a well- presented and enjoyable book. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
