About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the high-octane, high stakes world of F1, these are the key lessons learned at the top level of the sport – and how to take them out of the pitlane and make them work for you

Foreword by JAKE HUMPHREY, author of HIGH PERFORMANCE


F1 teams operate at the highest level of competitive sport. With huge sums of money, global prestige and even lives on the line, they work under constant pressure to survive and succeed.

Drawing on his World Championship-winning experience working for McLaren – one of the most storied and successful F1 teams in history – and his work as a high performance coach and mentor, Marc Priestley shows you lessons learned from and amongst the world’s best. He helps you to think about the challenges you face in work or life the way a world-class F1 team might think about those same challenges.

From conquering stress to building a winning team; from responding to failure to celebrating success – and much more – Marc Priestley takes you inside the pitlane to reveal the secrets of F1 success – and how they can work for you.

Critic Reviews

Packed full of great stories, expertise and insight (Jake Humphrey)
Formula One is a sport of high stakes and split-second decisions. But behind every choice made and every lap turned is a lifetime of lessons in every conceivable area of personal and collective responsibility. Marc knows what it takes to win on track and has dedicated his life to discovering how the experiences of those who have changed the game can help us navigate our own lives (Will Buxton)
In Formula One, high performance lives in the delicate balance between engineering excellence and human performance. My father, Dr Aki Hintsa, deeply enjoyed his interactions with individuals like Marc who could cross that chasm – the engineers who saw not just the car, but the person driving it. This book is a tribute not only to performance, but to the conversations that changed lives (Annastiina Hintsa)
Marc takes key learnings from his years in the pitlane and applies them to everyday life. With lessons that, in turn, will change your life (Jennie Gow)
