Adrian ha un dono unico per capire i piloti e le auto da corsa. È ultra competitivo ma non dimentica mai di divertirsi. Un uomo immensamente simpatico.' Damon Hill Il progettista più importante al mondo in Formula Uno, Adrian Newey OBE .È senza dubbio uno dei più grandi ingegneri britannici e questa .È la sua affascinante e potente autobiografia. How to Build a Car esplora la storia dell'impareggiabile carriera di Adrian di 35 anni in Formula Uno attraverso il prisma delle auto che ha progettato, dei piloti con cui ha lavorato e delle gare in cui .È stato coinvolto. Un vero genio dell'ingegneria, anche nell'adolescenza i pensieri di Adrian emergevano naturalmente in forma e aspetto: ha iniziato a disegnare i suoi progetti di auto all'età di 12 anni e ha seguito un corso di saldatura durante le vacanze estive della sua scuola. Dai suoi primi anni di carriera nelle corse IndyCar fino al suo ineguagliabile successo in Formula Uno, impariamo in modo completo, coinvolgente e molto divertente come funziona effettivamente un'auto. Adrian ha progettato per personaggi del calibro di Mario Andretti, Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost, Damon Hill, David Coulthard, Mika Hakkinen, Mark Webber e Sebastian Vettel, sempre con una purezza di intenti da squalo: far andare la macchina più veloce. E mentre la sua carriera .È stata segnata da trionfi incredibili, ci sono state anche tragedie profonde; in particolare la morte di Ayrton Senna durante il suo periodo alla Williams nel 1994. Splendidamente illustrato con disegni mai visti prima, How to Build a Car racchiude, attraverso la straordinaria storia di vita di Adrian, esattamente ciò che rende la Formula Uno così emozionante: il suo potenziale per la totale sincronicità tra uomo e macchina, la combinazione di stile, efficienza e velocità.
