Well, i would recommend any of the eddie irvine books, they are crap, he is so self centred it is sicking.

The book about jordans season in 1998 is very good.

Why dont you look at the atlasf1 bookstore.

I've read 4 good F1 books in the last 6 months.

"Life at the Limit: Triumph and Tragedy in Formula 1." by Dr. Sid Watkins who follows the field on starts in the safety car.

"Gilles Villeneuve - The Life of the Legendary Racing Driver", by Charles(?) Donaldson

If you're a Senna fan:

"Ayrton Senna - As Time Goes BY", by Christiphor Hilton" - excellent book

"The Death of Ayrton Senna", by Richard Williams --another superbly written book.

I'm not much of a reader, but when I received these books in the mail, I finished each one in less than 48 hour (and yes I work full time and chase a two year old around), so obviously these books kept my attention.

DEFINATELY Gilles VIlleneuve - The life of a legendary racing driver, and its Gerald Donaldson bschue :)

I've read the death of Ayrton Senna, and it's excellent as well.
