Even a book on pilots, but this time with an unusual cut: only interviews that seek to probe the mind of people who decide to get on a bike and start their lives at more than 330 per hour. Sixty champions of past and present united by a single characteristic: they are all Italian. Besides that crazy. We start from the last forty years and you end up with Valentino Rossi, Max Biaggi, Loris Capirossi. We are the last and we are the first. Some have won a lot, as Agostini, and those who did not win anything, as Lucchi, but has become the king of the testers. In talking to them, the drivers. Talking in a relaxed way, face to face with the interviewer, Luca Delli Carri, passionate young journalist and writer is not new to these issues (his first book, “The unruly”, won the Sport Stand 2002. “ Matti from racing “is the first book of a trilogy dedicated to the races). Sixty interviews conducted exclusively in person, the result of 170 hours of recording time and six years of work, transferred to seven hundred pages that you do read it in one breath, accompanied by many rare images. There are heroic centaurs fifties, as the great Ubbiali, Tarquinio Auditions, Bruno Spaggiari and Remo Venturi. There are Pagans, father and son, the Valanga Azzurra to complete: Marco Lucchinelli, Franco Uncini, Virginio Ferrari and Graziano Rossi, father of Valentino. There are also champions of the SUV. As Emilio Ostorero (never heard of him?) A Piedmontese hard as a stone. There are Maddii and Rinaldi, and the champions of the world of motocross, Puzar, Nails, Bartolini. Enduro there are the legendary Alessandro Gritti, and then Giovanni Sala and Mario Rinaldi, who in two have won nine world titles. There is also our European champion speedway Castagna. Chestunut: great! As Giancarlo Falappa. There is, too. Together with Pierfrancesco Chili, Fabrizio Pirovano and the other Italian who won in Superbike. Not only riders however, there are also men of the pits, mechanics, team managers, doctors, builders and prosecutors revealing backstage and tell the other side of a tough sport and real as a few others, in which man has still much and can make a difference.
