Drive: A Memoir

THE MOST ANTICIPATED SPORTS AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE YEAR. 'Horner has an incredible story to tell.' THE TIMESDiscover the gripping, behind-the-scenes account of life at the pinnacle of Formula 1, with Christian Horner’s candid and uncompromising autobiography. The watching world wanted to see Max and Lewis go head-to-head in a title decider, not crawl to an underwhelming finish. Anything else was a disappointment. Packed with stories featuring motorsport’s biggest characters – Dietrich Mateschitz, Bernie Ecclestone, Adrian Newey, Max Verstappen, Toto Wolff and many others – DRIVE offers a unique and unfiltered perspective from the highest level of the world’s most thrilling sport. Capturing the intense drama and high-stakes decisions faced when pushing a team to the absolute limits of performance, Christian Horner talks candidly about the twenty years he spent building and running Red Bull Racing. He opens up about elusive drivers, fierce rivals, team dynamics and the many personal battles he fought on and off the track, including the events leading to his shock departure from the team. ‘Well, the higher you rise, the sharper the knives,’ said Geri. Her logic was hard to argue against. Under Horner’s leadership, Red Bull rewrote the rulebook, broke longstanding records and won fourteen World Championship titles. Packed with gripping stories and unprecedented insights, Christian’s frank and unflinching memoir tells his story for the very first time. Drive is the must-read autobiography for fans who want to know what really happens inside Formula 1.
