Publisher's Summary
Random House presents the audiobook edition of The Mechanic written and read by Marc 'Elvis' Priestley.
In the high-octane atmosphere of the Formula One pit lane, the spotlight is most often on the superstar drivers. And yet, without the technical knowledge, competitive determination and outright obsession from his garage of mechanics, no driver could possibly hope to claim a spot on the podium. These are the guys who make every world champion, and any mistakes can have critical consequences.
That's not to say the F1 crew is just a group of highly skilled technical engineers, tweaking machinery in wind tunnels and crunching data through high-spec computers. These boys can seriously let their hair down. Whether it be parties on luxury yachts in Monaco or elaborate photo opportunities in gravity-defying aeroplanes, this is a world which thrills on and off the track.
Join McLaren's former number one mechanic, Marc 'Elvis' Priestley, as he tours the world, revealing some of Formula One's most outrageous secrets and the fiercest rivalries, all fuelled by the determination to win.
This is Formula One as you've never seen it before.

Beautiful tales. A must read for all F1 fans
loved the story of elvis and all that happened around him. A must read for those who thinks Fernando Alonso is plain toxic without knowing how big a part Lewis played in creating that image about him

An amazing look at formula one
Well written and well read, this is a simple tale of a formula one mechanic. This is no power brokers tale of intrigue or driver biography. It is about what it feels like to be part of formula one as one of many. And it is a wonderful read. Do give it a chance if you enjoy racing.
