Perry McCarthy- Flat Out Flat Broke

Who here has read this book?

A hilarious account of Perry McCarthy's struggle to reach Formula 1, with the year in Formula 1 itself arguably the biggest struggle of all.

"Julian Bailey was with me when I phoned the team and I found their receptionist was as bright as the rest of them.

'Pronto, Andrea Moda Formula,' she said.
'Hello,' I said. 'It's Perry.'
'Perry...Perry who?' came the reply.
'Perry McCarthy,' I answered, patiently.
'What company are your from?'
'I'm not from a company. I'm your bloody racing driver!'"

I definitely recommend a read. Perry has a highly witty turn of phrase adding to the entertainment of his own story.
