DANSKE F1 DRØMME. Denne tredobbelte biografi er historien om den første helhjertede danske satsning mod F1 med racerkørerne Tom Belsø, Jac Nellemann og Thorkild Thyrring. Bogen beskriver hele deres karriere i alle klasserne, men med fokus på deres formelaktiviteter. De mødtes alle tre i den tids talentklasse – Formel Ford – der blev trinbrættet for dem i 1970 på vej mod det forjættede land F1. Her er historierne fra A til Z. De havde trådt deres racersko godt og grundigt i vidt forskellige kategorier i 1960’erne. Tom havde længe kørt i tunge standardbiler, mens Jac lige så længe havde prøvet kræfter i gokart og Thorkild var startet direkte i F3 men med bedagede modeller. Det var ingen optimal måde at nå F1 på. Læs om standardvognskøreren, der i en årrække havde lænet sig op ad sine konkurrenter i svingene og jævnligt udvekslet karosserimaling, og som nu sad i en åben formelbil uden tag over hovedet. Om hvordan det var for gokartkøreren at komme op fra de diminutive jernsenge og nu ligge indkapslet i en tynd skal af skrøbeligt glasfiber. Eller hvordan det var for en F3-kører i forældet materiel at komme fra brede dæk og nu skøjte rundt på smalle gadedæk i Formel Ford. Så hvem var de første danskere i F1 og hvem nåede sine drømmes mål først? Hvem var egentlig de danske forløbere for Jan Magnussen, Nicolas Kiesa og Kevin Magnussen? Dette og meget mere giver de over 330 sider med mere end 900 fotos svaret på.

Anmeldernes dom:”En fuldstændig medrivende bog om verdens måske mest komplette racerkører. Fantastisk velskrevet med en gribende og sjældent set varme.”****** Thomas Wulff, tv-kommentator, 6’eren”Hvilken præcision, hvilket fortæller-gen! Den måske bedste racerbog, jeg nogen sinde har læst.”****** Flemming Haslund, Jyllands-Posten”Spændende og uhyre underholdende. De mange billeder alene er hele bogen værd.” ****** Michael Ewert, Bil Magasinet"Medrivende og humoristisk værk. En selvbiografi, man SKAL læse!”****** Flemming Hansen, F1journal.com”En sindssygt fed bog, der rummer en dybde og bredde, man sjældent ser i sportsbiografier.” Karsten Lemche, FDM/Motor"Så personlig, at det næsten virker, som om man sidder ved siden af Magnussen. Også billedsiden imponerer.” Christian Schacht, Fyens Stiftstidende”Fantastisk bog, der giver dyb indsigt i motorsportsverdenen. Anbefales varmt!”Keld Poulsen, læser på gad.dk”En medrivende, velfortalt fortælling om fyringer, dræbte kollegaer og svigt. Fyldt med anekdoter i en fin balance mellem røverhistorier, succeser og nedture.”Bo Skovfoged, Racemag.dkOm bogen:Jan Magnussens beretning om sit turbulente liv er en fantastisk fortælling om en dreng, der opfyldte sit mål om at blive den bedste i verden, men knækkede på vejen til at blive stjerne i Formel 1. Som 22-årig blev danskeren kaldt verdens største talent inden for motorsport. Tre verdensmesterskaber i gokart og en pulverisering af legenden Ayrton Sennas rekord for flest Formel 3-sejre fik alle til at spå Magnussen en enestående fremtid, men et eller andet gik galt på vejen. Midtvejs i sin anden Formel 1-sæson blev stortalentet fyret og af medierne stemplet som fiasko, hvilket sendte ham ud i en månedlang depression og tanken om helt at vende sporten ryggen. I dag kan Jan Magnussen se tilbage på sin Formel 1-fyring som det bedste, der er sket i hans liv. På bunden af sin karriere genfandt han ved en tilfældig test i USA legebarnet, droppede alle pillerne og har siden udviklet sig til en af motorsportens mest succesrige og alsidige personligheder. Ingen anden kører i verden har opnået at deltage i så mange topserier som Formel 1, IndyCar, DTM, WTCC, NASCAR og selvfølgelig Le Mans, hvor Magnussen i dette årtusinde har givet Corvette en lang række sejre. I denne rigt illustrerede bog skriver Jan Magnussen levende og humoristisk om de mange sejre og nederlag både på og uden for banerne, ligesom han tager læserne med bag kulisserne i en verden, der afgøres på brøkdele af et sekund. Han fortæller ærligt om sorgerne og glæderne i familielivet, ikke mindst om broderens tragiske selvmord og teenage-sønnen Kevin, der efter at have fået lærlingekontrakt med McLaren-teamet står på spring til at indfri de Formel 1-løfter, man naturligt tillægger Danmarks hurtigste efternavn.BAG BOGENJan Magnussens selvbiografi er fortalt til kørerens mangeårige pressechef Jan Kaiser samt journalisten Nils Finderup, der tidligere har skrevet flere bøger om Tom Kristensens karriere.

Zum Zeitpunkt seiner Präsentation 1955 war der Citroën DS gleichermassen Sensation und Faszination für Designer, Philosophen und Politiker. Kein anderes Fahrzeug vermochte Form und Technologie scheinbar mühelos so stimmig zu vereinen. Radikal in seiner Ausführung und revolutionär in Sachen Komfort und Sicherheit, ist der DS einer der innovativsten Design-Ikonen des 20. Jahrhunderts.In Kollaboration mit Lars Müller Publishers, veröffentlichte der Schweizer Architekt Christian Sumi 2001 eine neue Edition "AS in DS" (Alison Smithson in DS). In diesem neuen Werk, untersucht er die Charakteristiken dieses vollendeten Automobils anhand sorgfältig arrangierter Fotoserien und Zeichnungen von Falminio Bertoni und dem Citroën Designteam, die Innen und Aussenkonstruktion des DS detailliert aufzeigen. Mit Hilfe von Fotoessays der damaligen Werbekampagnen zum Citroën DS, analysiert Sumi dessen Ikonisierung, Wahrnehmung und Theorien, welche das Phänomen in einem zeitgenössischen und philosophischen gleichermassen kontextualisieren.

When Bruno Sacco walked through the doors on his first day at Mercedes-Benz on 13 January 1958, it is highly unlikely that his Daimler-Benz colleagues could ever imagine that this nervous young man would not only revolutionize design but would change the way design and innovation connected with brand tradition forever.  Bruno Sacco is one of the most influential automotive designers of the late twentieth century; many models launched during his era now characterize the Mercedes-Benz brand. When Nik Greene asked Bruno Sacco to assist with this book, he replied humbly "No-one designs a car alone, and more to the point, I never, for one minute, wanted to. From the moment I became Head of Design, I put down my pens and became a manager of minds." With over 330 photographs and illustrations, this book includes an overview of the early days of functional vehicle design and the influence of safety on design evolution. The protagonists of Daimler-Benz design from Hermann Ahrens to Paul Bracq are covered. Design philosophy and innovation under Bruno Sacco is discussed along with the Sacco-designed cars and, finally, the Bruno Sacco legacy.
