RINDT’S CHAPTER AND TERSE
BOOK REVIEW
JOCHEN RINDT: A CHAMPION WITH HIDDEN DEPTHS
The name Jochen Rindt is scarcely found without the epithet ‘Formula 1’s only posthumous world champion’. This year marks the 50th anniversary since the German-born racer won the 1970 title despite his demise at the wheel of a Lotus 72C in practice ahead of the Italian Grand Prix at Monza.
To mark the golden jubilee. Written by Dr Erich Glavitza, who knew Rindt well, the book indeed serves to move beyond that well-worn epithet.
