About this product

Product Information

Eddie Jordan gave Michael Schumacher his first drive, and helped groom a whole series of drivers early in their careers, including Damon Hill and Martin Brundle. But he funded his first move into motor sport by selling smoked salmon well past its sell-by date to rugby fans leaving Lansdowne Road; when stopped for speeding by a policeman, he ended up selling him his car. Jordan set up his own team, and moved into Formula One at the end of the 1980s. It wasn't long before the team began to pick up podium finishes, and in 1998 won its first race - a remarkable achievement on a comparatively small budget. The following year was even better, but sadly this was to be the peak, as the search for more finance and legal battles with sponsors hit hard. Eventually, in January 2005 he sold the team. AN INDEPENDENT MAN goes behind the scenes to reveal the true personalities of the drivers Jordan worked with, and his battles with Bernie Ecclestone. It shows how, when so much money is involved, nothing is ever simple. His has been a life lived to the full, and his account is packed full of superb stories, colourful adventures and revealing tales.

4 out of 5 stars

Good insight into F1
A surprisingly good read - the very beginning and end aren't as good (may seem abit self-indulgent) as the main section covering Jordan's motor racing history - an insight into the politics and characters in the sport. Lots of interesting detail - he must have an amazing memory and it's a big book - not a book written quickly to cash in. A good example of how to get on by taking opportunities and blagging when you need to! The paperback apparently is an updated/extended version of the hardback.
