Overview

Motorsport has always raced on the edge of possibility, where brilliant engineers chase the outer limits of performance and rulemakers struggle to keep pace. Fire on the Throttle & Tribulation tells the true story of that century-long tension - an unbroken chain of controversies, breakthroughs, bans, and reinventions that shaped the global racing landscape. From the first displacement limits of the 1900s to the hybrid-era complexity of today, this book charts the relentless tug-of-war between human ingenuity and institutional oversight. Drawing on more than a hundred years of Grand Prix drama, endurance-racing reinventions, rallying revolutions, touring-car arms races, and motorcycle technical clashes, the narrative reveals how every triumph in motorsport engineering has forced the rulebook to adapt. It recounts how crises sparked change, how manufacturers and privateers fought for influence, how fans became part of the regulatory dialogue, and how global convergence is reshaping the sport's future. Both a sweeping history and a deep technical chronicle, this is the definitive exploration of motorsport's most decisive regulatory battles - the moments when innovation collided with authority, and the sport itself was remade.
