"How to Build a Car" is an autobiography written by Adrian Newey, one of the most successful Formula 1 car designers in the world. The book provides an insightful look into Newey's illustrious career spanning over three decades, during which he has worked with some of the biggest names in motorsports.

Throughout his career, Newey has worked with various teams such as Williams, McLaren, and Red Bull, designing some of the most successful cars in the history of the sport.
However, Newey's journey hasn't been without its challenges. The book also touches upon the tragic death of Ayrton Senna during his time at Williams in 1994, which had a profound impact on him and the team. Despite this setback, Newey continued to push boundaries and achieve great success in Formula One.

The book is beautifully illustrated with never-before-seen drawings of some of the most iconic cars designed by Newey, making it a must-read for anyone interested in Formula One or engineering in general. Overall, this book encapsulates the thrill and excitement of Formula One through the lens of Adrian Newey's remarkable life story.
