Jackie Stewart's Principles of Performance Driving

When Jackie Stewart retired from motor racing in 1973 at the age of 34, he was statistically the most successful Grand Prix driver of all time. The record of 27 victories to his credit stood intact more than a decade later. But Stewart's racing career was merely the hors d'oeuvre to an equally successful career as an international businessman, well connected with many major companies in the motor racing world and motor industry. The meticulous approach to detail, painstaking preparation and thorough professionalism which Jackie focused on his motor racing have been applied by him to every aspect of his life since his retirement from the cockpit. This volume allows the reader to share the Stewart philosophy, not only behind the wheel but also in his approach to life in general. As well as being a concise and thought-provoking manual for success in motoring, whether on road or track, it is a detailed blueprint for the life of a successful sportsman or a busy business executive in any sphere.
