With the original panels by the designer Angela Allegretti, today among the cartoonists who create the comic book “Zagor”
In this book Ivan Capelli – one Formula 1’s most popular drivers in the 1980s and 1990s and now a Sky commentator – retraces and reveals his life, on and off track, in 55 stories (matching the number carried on his kart on the day of his first race).
The narrative thread is reflected in the comic strip tasked with giving visual form to the words, capturing and fixing individual moments in support of the story.
And there are many of these stories and anecdotes: how his passion for karting was born, how it developed in parallel with his father Graziano’s enthusiasm and all those who accompanied him along this path. Who was it who gave him his Formula 1 race suit and what was said to him during his first drivers’ briefing, on the day of his debut at Brands Hatch in 1985; and again, his earliest memories as a child in a pedal car, but also an unforgettable New Year’s Eve spent at Senna’s house in Brazil.
A book of memories and recollections, sometimes ironic and funny, sometimes marked by profound humanity.
