Ten teams, 20 elite global drivers, countless crew members, wives and girlfriends, sometimes both, friends and foes, life-threatening risk, billions of dollars and world championships at stake, and the desperate need for speed. What could go wrong?

In Book One of the series "Faster!", elder statesman, Italian Enrico Ciaro, a multiple world racing champion and record holder, makes his big comeback after an accident in 2019 that looked like a career-ender. Not how Enrico saw things, and his comeback starts in July of 2020, Covid season, a truncated race calendar that begins with spectator-less races in Austria.

Through the 17-race season, full of compromises, masks, skirmishes and mishaps, we follow Enrico as he contends with his fellow racers and grapples with his encroaching age. Torn between giving it all up so younger drivers can claim his space and fight to beat his records, and staying the course, a decision that might net him greater clout, more revenue, and a future in management, he warily decides to pursue his career. And his ultimate goal of winning his third driver's title, membership in racing's holy trinity. Can he pull it off?

While it all seems like a calculated plan, nothing is consistent at this highest level of open-wheel racing, and anything can happen. Anything.

Man in the White Suit Lib/E: The Stig, Le Mans, the Fast Lane, and Me
<p>When the Black Stig disappeared off the end of an aircraft carrier in 2003, we were introduced to The White Stig. Faster. Stranger. Harder to keep clean. And ever since, millions have wondered-who is the Man in the White Suit? They're about to find out.</p><p>Ben Collins caught the car the bug young, kicking his dad's boss in the balls for not giving him a company Jag. This was the attitude that eventually led him to spend seven years sharing a cabin with Jeremy Clarkson's underwear, James May's PhD thesis, and Richard Hammond's hairspray. Because he is the Stig.</p><p>Now he tells all about life inside the iconic white helmet. What it's like to guide a blind ex-RAF officer around the Top Gear track&#x3b; pit a drug dealer's Mitsubishi Evo against a Trojan tank&#x3b; set a Vauxhall Monara against Chloe the dancing Ninja&#x3b; and race double-decker Routemasters against bendy buses-not to mention all the inside stuff on how the show's amazing driving sequences are made.</p><p>He also reveals how he got to be there-setting a Dunsfold lap time faster than Michael Schumacher's. Breaking records with the best of the best at Daytona and Le Mans.</p><p>It's an awesome story, told by an amazing man.</p>
