| Review: |
If you are one of the "Red Army" here's one for your collection. Contained in this volume is a wealth of illustrations and historical information covering HRT from pre-formation days to events in 2002. Andrew Quested covers the highs, lows, and the sometimes controversial events that helped shape one of Australia's most successful motor sport teams. The HRT fan will find interesting background information on the many personalities past and present, whose combined contributions made the team what it is today. On the controversy side, Mr Quested covers in some detail the facts surrounding the departures of Wayne Gardner in 1993, and the activities concerning the more recent Craig Lowndes defection to Ford in 2001. We found the layout of mixing past and later chapters a little disconcerting, however this is a fine book written in a style to suit readers of all ages, and includes some of the best images we have seen. |
