"Tales from the Toolbox" is a unique collection of
behind-the-scenes stories and anecdotes as told, in their own
words, by former Grand Prix mechanics who have worked at the top
level of the sport during the past 50 years. On the front line of
the sport, mixing with drivers and team bosses, they saw a side of
it that nobody else got to see and rarely gets to hear about - and
this book tells their story. Chapters are themed around a
particular aspect of a mechanic's life, ranging from what they
consider the highs and lows of their career, to their opinions of
drivers and team bosses, the all-nighters, letting off steam, the
'Mechanic's Gallon', nightmare journeys and customs capers. It also
reveals a tale of camaraderie between teams and individual
mechanics which is hard to imagine in today's highly competitive
Formula One environment. The stories are supplemented by
photographs from the archives and photo albums of the mechanics
themselves, many of which are previously unseen.
