I feel like this is a must read for fans of F1 (or motorsport or really cars in general). Gave me such an appreciation for all the people working behind the scenes to make driver wins possible. Adrian is a genius, but also seems like a genuine guy. I think this book did an excellent job of toeing the line between showing off just how talented he is while still highlighting that fact that he has made mistakes.

Halfway through my reading of this book, the news dropped that Adrian will be leaving Red Bull in 2025. That made it an even more intriguing read, especially towards the end when he talks about all the other teams that approached him with crazy offers in the past. I wonder if that Ferrari offer is still on the table…
