MEMORIES OF RONNIE PETERSON
Friends, associates and fans remember racing legend Ronnie Peterson

Back in the 1970s, when a higher priority was placed on having big bushy sideburns than on main maintaining racing safety, one of the most luminous stars on the racing scene was a Swede — Ronnie Peterson. His racing achievements remain unparalleled to this day in Swedish motor sport history. During the years 1970 through 1978, Ronnie competed in 123 Formula 1 races, and won on 10 occasions. He also competed in other classes during the same period, and very successfully, too —winning the1A71 European Formula 2 Championship and taking home the World Sports Car Championship for Ferrari in 1972.

Memories of Ronnie Peterson is a book full of recollections by, and pictures of, people who in one way or another were a part of Ronnie Peterson's successful racing career, either on the sidelines or wheel to wheel.

Tommy Peterson treats us to some early episodes in his brother's life and several of Ronnie's friends and associates from the Formula 1 circus share some more personal memories than have ever been published before. Emerson Fittipaldi, MehoAndrotti. Sir Jackie Stewart, Max Mosley, Robin Herd, Kenny Brack, Reine Wisell, Eje E!gh.A!en Henry and Fredrik ofPetemene are some of the 47 contributors. And don't miss out on the fantastic story about when Ronnie lapped two, very surprised, drivers while going backwards! This volume also includes a comprehensive list ofRonnia'o racing results along with numerous unique pictures and a brief biography.
