This study reveals the make-up, organization and, above all, the human commitment of a top Formula One team. The book's fly-on-the-wall treatment provides a look at the everyday life at Benetton and within Formula One generally. It traces Benetton's strategy starting from the late autumn of 1992 when the dust had barely cleared on the previous season, and describes the new developments on the car and the test programmes, often carried out on bleak days far removed from the hype and glamour of high summer Grand prix. Benetton came third in the constructors' championship in 1992 behind Williams and McLaren. The book takes the reader behind the scenes at the team's state-of-the-art factory, and on the road with the race crew for the World Championship, contested from South Africa to South Australia. With Michael Schumacher, the brightest talent to emerge for years and Riccardo Patrese, one of the most experienced drivers in Formula One - at the wheels of the newly designed cars, expectations are high for the coming season. Other books by Derick Allsop include "The British Racing Hero", "In the Driving Seat" (with Nigel Mansell), "Driven to Win" (with Nigel Mansell) and "Mansell and Williams: The Challenge for the Championship".

"Derick Allsop's fly-on-the-wall account of the Camel Benetton Ford World Championship challenge exposes the complexity of running such a massive campaign. A Grand Prix team reveals only a small part of itself to the world. Behind closed doors, away from the public gaze, lie the hours of design and testing, the inevitable conflicts and setbacks, and the unsung heroes responsible for everything from PR to catering, from driver safety to team travel arrangements. "Design on Victory" looks behind these closed doors, taking the reader to the team's state-of-the-art factory and on the road with the race crew." PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in full-color photography with accompanying descriptive captions. 208 pages. NOTE: Due to the large size and weight of the book additional shipping cost will be requested/required for OUT-OF-U.S. shipment. GL4. N° de réf. du vendeur 012705
