ill., ril. Dopo la Formula 1 e forse il "vecchio" Mondiale Marche, da sempre, i Rally rappresentano il Campionato che ha attirato l'interesse del pubblico e degli appassionati, sia per gli aspetti tecnici e agonistici sia per quelli umani. Mini Cooper e Porsche 911 prima, Alpine Renault e Lancia (dalla Fulvia alla Stratos, passando attraverso la 037, il ''mostro'' Delta e la S4 sino alla 4WD) dopo, ma anche Opel Ascona, Fiat 131, Renault 5, Audi Quattro o Peugeot 205 sino alle ''moderne'' Toyota, Subaru, Ford e Citroen, sono le protagoniste di questa affascinante storia. Al volante di questi indimenticabili miti si è avvicendata gente come Munari, Rohrl, Alen, Biasion, Auriol, Blomqvist, Kankkunen, McRae e Loeb. Apparso una prima volta nel 2010 ed ora aggiornato fino al 2016, il volume, scritto da una firma autorevole come quella di Sergio Remondino e corredato da centinaia di immagini scattate da Reinhard Klein, ripercorre anno dopo anno questa straordinaria storia. Introduzione di Miki Biasion.

Questa affascinante storia rivive in un volume ricco di immagini e aneddoti, a firma di Emanuele Sanfront, per anni giornalista e navigatore di rally.

ill., ril. Prisca Taruffi, campionessa italiana e vice campionessa europea rally, si racconta attraverso gli aspetti più avventurosi della sua vita sportiva. Figlia d'arte, Prisca, ha ereditato la passione per la velocità dal padre, l'ingegner Piero Taruffi, indimenticato pilota, progettista e recordman degli anni Trenta e Cinquanta. Una passione, quella per i motori, da sempre contrastata dai genitori. Quasi per caso un inesorabile destino legherà per tutta la vita l'autrice alla figura del padre. Questa è la storia di una donna pilota dal carattere indipendente e ribelle che sì è dovuta fare largo in un mondo prettamente maschile come quello dell'automobilismo. Una vita costellata di aneddoti, anche intimi, che vanno oltre i racconti legati alla professione: dalla promessa che il padre fece a Donna Isabella, madre dell'autrice, prima dell'ultima leggendaria Mille Miglia vinta nel 1957, al debutto automobilistico sul circuito di Vallelunga contro il volere del padre. E ancora, gli incidenti in gara - sia in circuito, sia nei rally -, gli imprevisti e le esperienze nel mondo dei Rally Raid africani (come il Rally dei Faraoni e il Rally delle Gazzelle, una gara di orienteering tutta al femminile). Non solo una biografia, ma un ampio sguardo alla professione di donna pilota, impreziosito dagli incontri con colleghe amiche e rivali del mondo delle corse. Preazione di Carlo Cavicchi. Introduzione di Antonella Clerici.

No marks or inscriptions. A lovely clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or creased with minor traces of storage. 128pp. This book provides the first comprehensive record of Saab's competition history from its inception to the intensely competitive 1980 season. At the same time it traces the influence which motorsport had on the development of the original Saab 92 and the 93, 96, 96 V4, 99 and 900-series cars which have succeeded it, and recalls the exploits of some brilliant drivers like Erik Carlsson, Carl-Magnus Skogh and Stig Blomqvist, who have done so much to glorify the image, not only of Saab, but of rallying itself.
