Description

The New York Times Instant Bestseller

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, Susie Wolff dreamed of one day racing Formula One cars--the fastest in the world, reaching speeds of over 200 mph. But F1 was completely dominated by men. The sport is grueling both mentally and physically. Turning a corner can feel like four times your body weight is pressing against you. And the question always hovered: Could a woman really compete with the men?

After years of sacrifice and doubt, Susie rose through the ranks to earn her spot behind the wheel of an F1 car. She became the first woman in more than two decades to take part in a Formula One race weekend. But her story didn't end at the checkered flag. Shifting to the business side and inspired by her husband, Toto, who runs one of the most successful F1 teams in history, she led her own Formula E team to championship contention. In 2023 she took over the leadership of F1 Academy with the mission of bringing the next generation of young women into the sport.

Driven
is a thrilling story about the highest levels of driving--but more than that, it's a story of perseverance bound to inspire anyone on or off the track.
