New Zealander Howden Ganley raced cars at the highest level internationally at the apex of motor racing�s most glamorous and dangerous era � the 1960s and 70s, when Formula 1 drivers enjoyed rock star status, while dicing in cars and on circuits that had virtually none of the safety features today�s drivers take for granted.
The catalogue of carnage from those free-wheeling years makes for grim reading at times, yet the drivers, designers, marshals and other circuit insiders had a free-spirited camaraderie and testosterone fuelled bravado that cannot be replicated in today�s super-hyped, made-for-media world.
The Road to Monaco is the story of one man�s journey from dreamy-eyed kid to the race tracks of the world.
