Formula 1 is a sport in which you cannot reach the peaks on the day you begin your ascent. A statement that becomes axiomatic when you want to forge new paths in the field of technology. Although the use of turbo engines was authorized by the technical regulations of Formula 1, for a long time, no one dared to take the step. No one except Renault. This happened in 1977, on the national holiday of France, when the Yellow Teapot turned the first page of the Turbo Adventure. A story born from the desire of a sponsor to bet on technology during a period when, in Formula 1, skirts, lead balls in the tanks, and cooling with ice were in fashion, even though it smelled fishy. These were times when drivers went on strike, contended for victory in memorable duels, and sometimes won without knowing it or without having been in the lead for even a second. And if this was not enough to capture your attention, the book also reveals a secret. How is it possible to put 235 liters of gasoline into a 220-liter tank? The answer and many other stories await discovery in the Turbo Adventure. Gentlemen, start your engines and let yourselves be immersed in the times of innocence.
