5.0 out of 5 stars F1's softer side, August 11, 2000
By Lance Mounty (London, England) - See all my reviews
How refreshing it is to read a book about Formula 1 that isn't just about being macho. Most books in this genre are only too keen to promote their subjects as out and out hard men. Jim Dunn really penetrates David Coulthard. Thanks to much intimate probing from the author we get to know David Coulturd the man as opposed to the image. Formula One fans will get a real treat as the relationship between Coulthard and Ron Dennis is exposed, along with other behind the scenes glimpses into the workings of the McLaren team. We also accompany David away from the race track to visit people and places from his past who have had a bearing on him as a person as well as a driver - his school games teacher, his favourite uncle to name but two. When back at home in Scotland David takes the author to his hometown nite-spot, The Blue Oyster bar. It is here that David tells us how in this building he got his nickname, which also forms the book's subtitle. I wont spoil the story - buy the book and read it yourself! I thoroughly recommend this book as a breath of fresh air in the sometimes stale canon of sports-biography.

4.0 out of 5 stars Coultard - Man-to-Man, August 14, 2000
By David Coultard (London, UK) - See all my reviews
David Coultard, whilst not the most fascinating character on the F1 circuit, is fully exposed in what turns out to be an excellent book. The author gets deep into his subject, and, it would seem, Mr Coultard enjoyed the probing. His mixed performance at McLaren is interesting to read, and David is, at last, given a chance to air his excuses for performing poorly compared to the well-loved Mika Hakkinen.

I would recommend this book to anybody with an interest in F1, whether they are particularly interested in the sport's "Mr Grey" or not. A great chance to get inside F1!
