Summary

From an early age, Lee McKenzie had access to a motorsport world that most are rarely allowed into. From spending time in the paddock as a teen to becoming a highly respected Formula One journalist and presenter, Lee has been at the heart of motorsport for almost twenty years.

On the frontline of one of the most watched sports on the planet and gaining the respect of F1 world champions with her tough but fair interview approach, Lee has shared experiences, hire cars, parties and friendships with a host of drivers from Michael Schumacher to Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel to Jenson Button.

Inside F1 tells the stories of the careers of seven stars of the sport using her personal contact and interviews throughout the years. Lee's unique perspective takes us through the highs and lows, the controversies and crashes that led to some of the biggest and most memorable interviews in recent years. Lee's close relationship with the drivers makes Inside F1 an enthralling behind-the-scenes account of one of the biggest sports in the world.

As a long time follower of Forrmula 1, this reader has grown fond of the excellent and seemingly spontaneous interviews and comments by the elegant and informed Lee McKenzie. The drivers with whom she spoke seemed to enjoy their conversations, too. Her warm voice and gentle Scottish (easily understood) accent were an added bonus to her TV appearances. So it was with sad surprise that her reading of this, her book about the race world was more jarring than her on screen appearances Still good to hear, though.

Lee McKenzie was present in the Brazilian race in 2008, which Massa won, and for a few moments was belueved to have become World Champion, only to lose it to Hamilton in the last few seconds of the race. And it was really for her chapter on Felipe Masse that I purchased this book - there is plenty by and about the other F1 Champions listed available, but not the much loved Brazillian, now several.years retired who never did gain the title.
This is a book about Lee herself and the World Champions she knew personally and interviewed publicly, and includes, besides Felipe, Michael Schumacher, Sebastian Vettel , Jensen Button, Fernando Alonso, Max Verstappen, and Louis Hamilton with thumbnails of their backgrounds, their racing and F1 lives with main, often dramatic, events ighlighted.

Very interesting for F1 fans both new and old to relive some of the best highlights of racing this century.

"Formula 1, what a wonderful world."
