STEPHEN OLVEY
This is the compelling story of the author's often tragic, sometimes funny, and frequently frustrating journey through the volatile world of professional motorsports, during a career that has seen him work with many motor racing legends, including Graham Hill, A.J. Foyt. Mario Andretti, Rick Mears, Al Unser Jnr. Emerson Fittipaldi, Nigel Mansell, and Alex Zanardi, whose life he helped to save after his horrific accident in Germany in 2001
Along the way, he introduces many of the characters, geniuses, good guys, and bad guys that he has encountered, as arguably the world's most dangerous sport has been transformed into the still spectacular and markedly competitive - albeit much less dangerous - activity that it is today. Death and serious injury still lurk at each and every venue, but racing drivers can now expect to survive through their careers. Many individuals have combined their efforts, intellects, and desires to make this happen, and in Rapid Response the author sets out his story of how it all transpired. Honored with a Foreword by Alex Zanardi and an Afterword by Professor Sid Watkins, this book is a captivating read for all fans of motor racing.
