This series looks at jobs which involve a high element of danger. Through colour photographs, anecdotes and fact boxes, each book focuses on the risks involved in a dangerous occupation, with detailed information on the rigorous training that prepares men and women for the kinds of risks they will face. The authors aim also to show that discipline, commitment and professionalism are essential qualities. This book looks at the work of a racing driver, and at the dangers involved in practice and in actual racing. It describes the mental and physical preparation required for competing, and aims to show how the top drivers achieved success.
