Brawn BGP 001/02 – The Autobiography of Jenson Button’s World Championship flip-through
Formula 1’s ultimate underdog success story. Created in adversity, the Brawn GP team won the Drivers’ and Constructors’ Championships in its first and only year in Formula 1 - a story that is unique and unlikely to ever again be repeated at the highest level of motorsport.
This book is a thorough examination of Brawn BGP 001/02, the car driven to the World Championship in 2009 by the popular British Formula 1 star Jenson Button, and the factors that went into its extraordinary success. The story is supported by interviews with key members of the team, including team principal Ross Brawn, and a wealth of images and official company documentation never before seen in public.
It is a genuinely heroic tale based on foresight, resilience, fortitude, dedication, determination, engineering, innovation, application, great management, a high degree of talent on many levels, and intensive research and development - the very cornerstones of teamwork and race car design excellence.
This team’s achievement is one of the greatest and most unlikely triumphs in modern Formula 1, and it is fully detailed, from beginning to end, in this book, the 18th in the Great Cars series from Porter Press.

Very good book, nice 40th present from the wife
I read this book a few years ago when I was recovering from pneumonia , fantastic book that any Land Rover fan should have 🇬🇧
Would've been even funnier if the parrot said 'what the f*** did that chicken do?'
I AM ONE OF THOSE WHO LOVE THIS FILM THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CARS RACING DURING THE GREATEST TIME

this book is fantastic (like many PORTER books), a real bible about the J40, essential for enthusiasts.
I've been searching for 860003 for 37 years. Have scoured every inch of the US of A. Seriously, *HUGE* respect to the owner keeping the original paint and to the restorer of course!

I love the rather understated description of thinking you might die!
Wonderful, real 'Boys Own adventure'. Exciting, scary at times, but also with some laugh out loud moments. Well done Wally and gang!
Lovely story from three really good friends
Shane you priced the average car enthusiast out of the market…
i thought hue was the first one?
Looking forward to my copy arriving, thanks Andy "Waxy" Wainwright for your recommendation! From your friendly car salesman!
Amazing work, would love to see a video with all the pictures and footage of the actual restoration. Any chance on this?

I can't believe Land Rover lost the bid on this if they even bid on it.? This should be part of the Land Rover collection but they didn't bid enough or even bid at all so their loss. Would be great to see it on display at The Gaydon Heritage centre one day??
May be inThailand.
We need to know chassis and body numbers to find ten423
Unfortunately we don't know the chassis number but that just makes our quest an even more exciting challenge because we do at least have a few clues. One of the many period articles says it was a 1964 vehicle which, as our resident Land-Rover aficionado Martin Port confirms, means that it is a Series IIA model. He also states that it has a ‘de-luxe’ bonnet which has a more rounded profile than the basic razor edge version and is a specification backed up by the presence of interior de-luxe trim, including door cards. Although the exterior was painted white or Limestone at the time owned by The Three Men, photographs show the interior bodywork to be Land Rover Light Green - probably the 109in vehicle’s original colour, but Martin has also spotted some accident damage picked up en-route, with a noticeable crease in the back half of the tub thanks to the rear quarter being pushed forward following some kind of ‘coming together’. We are searching for more clues to share.

Wonder how much this project has cost in money...but we'll probably never know. Probably if someone asks how much it costs to row a project like this ashore, they can't afford it :-) greetings from Sweden.

I had a very early flat floor E-Type, registered in California as a 1960 model. It must have been very close to 9600 HP in arrangements.

I was working for Les Leston at the time and we supplied all of the accessories to the crew
Hall and Hall have built a replica of the V16 BRM, what an achievement
Fascinating. I believe when making The War Lover in England he raced minis at Oulton Park under a false identity for the same reason. Insurance.
He was one of us. Steve would love that from Richard. Respect.
Used to love when he brought out and raced his own 917 in the Historics.
To the extent that was technically possible, this film enabled the viewer to sense the experience and danger of driving one of those rocket ships. Only because of the passion and gravitas of Steve McQueen was such a slice of very particular reality able to be produced and that will stand in perpetuity as a testament to the skill and courage of those able to perform at that level.
Derek Bell: Grand Master of Le Mans. Co-driver of two of the greatest sports car drivers of all time: Jo Siffert and Jacky Ickx !!!
Funny that there’s a rumour he didn’t get on with Vern Schuppan. I haven’t met Derek Bell but Vern is a true gent.
I am very happy a chapter has been added regarding the Hesketh motorcycles. Hesketh is a larger story than many people understand.
Can me has it?
I had the exact same model in 1975-77 and drove it everyday. I was in high school and bought it from an oil company exec for $2700. Sold it and bought an E-type. Drove that one everyday too. Great cars!
it's more enjoyable to drive quickly on a country road when in my 54HP 1953 MGTD than it is in my 240HP 2007 cayman or 380HP vantage. one cannot "be on the edge" and drive at legal or socially responsible speeds in modern cars.
