Produktinformationen zu „Jamie Whincup (ePub)“
With success comes challenges, and Jamie has always had a target painted squarely on his rear spoiler. And it all started back in 1991, when his father put him behind the wheel of his first go-kart. With steely focus and a relentless desire to win, it was only a matter of time before Whincup made the leap to the Formula Ford circuit and on to the big show: Supercars.
But there are ups and downs to life in the fast lane - sackings, loss of sponsors, the rivalries, the fans, the partnerships, the sacrifices and being true to the dream when everything looks like an off-ramp. There are freak accidents, split-second decisions that win the day, omens from the race gods, and a strong dose of self-made luck.
In 2008, Jamie would seal his quest for the Supercar crown after several near-misses, and he wouldn't look back. Seven championships, four Bathurst 1000 victories and a Bathurst 12-hour win in the books, you'd be tempted to ride off into the sunset. But that's never been Jamie's style. It's just the start of his next act: team principal of Triple Eight Race Engineering and mentor to the next generation of champions.
'You have to make a decision: What do you want out of life? Where do you want to go? How do you want to live?'

Autoren-Porträt von Jamie Whincup
The form man of the last thirteen years in the Supercars Championship, Jamie Whincup has amazingly never finished out of the top five in that period. In 2017 Jamie won a record-breaking 7th championship in the Supercars Championship and continues to race fast and stay on top. He is currently driving for the very successful Red Bull Holden Racing team, and will soon take the reins as team principal and managing director at Triple Eight Race Engineering. Jamie is a natural on the track and a fan of anything with an ignition.
