Born in 1942 of wealthy parentsJochen Rindt was brought up in Austriataking up motor racing seriously when he was 21. After some years with Coopersand a year with Brabham he joined Lotus in 1969to gain victory for them in 1970.With his rebellious temperament and love of the high lifehe became hero-worshipped by the crowdsand his presence gave motor racing a panache and excitement it had lacked for some years. Jochen Rindt had begun work on this book with Heinz Pruller some time before his deathand after the tragedy it was complete with the help and support of Nina RindtJochen's beautiful Finnish wifewho writes of it 'I am sure this book will be the most true story about Jochen and his life.' Heinz Prullerthe author of this book was a close friend of Jochen and they had actually started work on it before the tragic death of Jochen at Monza. Heinz Pruller is a well-known motor-racing journalist and radio and television commentatorboth in his native Austria and on the international motor-racing scene.
