"An inside look at the competitive world of Formula One and trailblazer Susie Wolff's 20-year career, taking readers from the driver's seat and the F1 paddock all the way to the future of the sport. As a young girl in Scotland, Susie Wolff was fascinated by motorsport. The obsession began with the thrill of driving go-karts, which led her to dream of one day racing in Formula One--the pinnacle of motorsport and the fastest racing cars in the world, reaching speeds of over 200 mph. Susie believed that she had what it took, but at the time, F1 was completely dominated by male drivers. The journey was grueling, both physically and mentally. Braking in an F1 car can feel like five times your body weight is pressing against you. Even turning a corner--effortless in a normal car--can exert four times your body weight, pushing you to the limit. But the faster she rose through the ranks, the more obvious it became--she was almost always the only girl out there. The scrutiny was constant. The stakes were sky-high. And the question always hovered: could a woman really compete? Susie didn't just compete. She broke through. After years of sacrifice and doubt, she earned her shot behind the wheel of an F1 car-25 laps to prove she belonged. She did. But her story didn't end at the checkered flag. That belief-that she could carve a path through a world not built for women--got her into the paddock and proved that women could be competitive in F1. But it also left her asking a bigger question: how could she help get more women into the trenches? Inspired by her husband Toto's strategic mind and relentless drive in building one of the most successful F1 teams in history, Susie began to see a new dimension of the sport--one that extended far beyond the driver's seat. She led a struggling Formula E team and transformed it from being at the back of the grid to championship contention. More than that, she learned to evolve. F1 Academy became her next mission: to inspire young women to enter motorsport and shape the future of the sport she loves. Driven is a thrilling, high-speed story about the highest levels of driving--but more than that, it's the story of an extraordinary life. From the driver's seat to the F1 paddock, Susie offers a story of perseverance bound to inspire anyone on or off the track"-- Provided by publisher.
