John Barnard revolutionised Formula 1, and motorsport as a whole,
through his unrelenting quest for perfection in racing car design.
Written with Barnard's cooperation and with input from dozens of
associates, drivers and rivals, this biography tells the entire
story, both personal and professional, of a British design genius.
Barnard's technical achievements are explored in detail - and in
accessible language - with special emphasis on his brilliant
initiatives while at McLaren (the first carbon-fibre composite
chassis) and Ferrari (the first semi-automatic gearbox). The
Perfect Car is also a human-interest story, telling a tale of
innovation under intense pressure while Barnard endeavoured to
maintain a stable family life. This is a landmark book that will be
relished by anyone interested in motorsport and design
