More about the book
Jaguar boasts a race heritage that dates back 70 years. From the SS100 that established Jaguar's international racing credentials in the 1930s, to the phenomenal C-type and D-Type LeMans winners of the 1950s, the thundering XJ-R cars that signaled the marque's return to LeMans in the modern era, and the leaping cat's high-profile entry into the Formula 1 fray, this is the official story of the drivers, the races, and the cars behind the marque's incredible racing history. Rally, endurance, sports car, and now open-wheel competition-never before has this history been recorded in such detail and with such a rich collection of documents and photography culled from Jaguar archives. Also includes contributions from engineers, pit crew, mechanics, and drivers like Jackie Stewart, Stirling Moss, Jack Brabham, Martin Brundle, and Eddie Irvine.
