My Championship Year

By Jamie Whincup

Jamie Whincup is the reigning Champion of V8 Supercars. At 27 years old he is already being compared to Peter Brock and will soon have overtaken Mark Skaife's record. This is Jamie's diary: a year, beginning with Bathurst 2009, when he aims for his third successive title and sets himself a challenge never before achieved--to win consecutive titles in two different makes of car. This is the view from the driver's seat--unprecedented access to life on and off the track, insights into the competition and how Jamie copes with the pressure, his views on his competitors, how he deals with the highs and lows of racing and the truth behind the decision to switch from Ford to Holden--it's everything you want and need to know.
