Synopsis

This title celebrates Stirling Moss's full race and rally career, from the junior formulae to Formula 1, through to his post-retirement races in Audis and classic events in Lolas and Shelby-Mustangs. It describes Moss's early years racing with BMW 328, Cooper, Kieft, Jaguar, Sunbeam-Talbot and Beart-Climax, and how starting with HWM in 1950, Moss raced two-litre single-seaters in Formula 2. The book also details Moss's championship races for John Heath, Connaught, ERA, Cooper, and in his own Martin-Alta. Jaguar, Maserati, Ferrari and Aston Martin are mentioned, and accounts of Moss's Formula 1 races featuring front-engined cars from Mercedes-Benz, Vanwall, Maserati and BRM are given. The book also covers Moss's success with Rob Walker's cars in Formula 2, with Porsche and the rear-engined Cooper and Lotus F1 cars. Attention is also given to Moss's personality, career, family and life outside sport.
