Porsche Cayman: Thrill of the Chase

* The winning cars of Schumacher's Formula 1 world championships * Exclusive studio photography: a visual feast for fans that captures the special aura of the world champion cars * A tribute to the perfect symbiosis of driver and car in Formula 1 history Among the "relics" of past Formula 1 world championships, the winning cars occupy a very special position. Only when driver and car complement each other perfectly, when they form a kind of symbiosis, does an exceptional performance follow. And even if the driver has long since moved on, years and decades later, the cars remain as a symbol of the victory. The seven cars in which Michael Schumacher won his world championship titles between 1994 and 2004 bear witness to his development from champion to serial winner. They still document an extraordinary driver whose performance has never been surpassed. In exquisite studio photography, this volume shows the world champion cars, which are still surrounded by a special aura. In this book, Schumacher's manager Sabine Kehm and motoring journalist Elmar Brümmer take a closer look at the phenomenon that is Michael Schumacher - the driver, but also the person. With a foreword by seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton.

"This is a vibrant photo-essay on the history and evolution of Porsche's rear-engined sports legend." ― Classic Cars. To call it a legend is almost an understatement. After more than 50 years of model history, the one millionth Porsche 911 rolled off the production line in May 2017. The number of its fans is many times higher - because the "911" is the epitome of the sports car. Not only with its innovative technology, striking design and successes in major international racing events - from the 24 Hours of Daytona to the Monte Carlo Rally - has the Porsche 911 left and continues to leave a powerful tyre mark. The pop-cultural impact is also immense. Celebrities such as Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bill Gates have come out as enthusiasts. Steve McQueen drove it in the classic Le Mans. This exciting book covers design and model history, and includes the most important technical data.
