Aussie Grit: My Formula One Journey by Mark Webber

3.0

This autobiography covers Mark Webber's career in motorsport up until the end of his Formula 1 career. I enjoyed listening to his journey but what I did not enjoy was Mark's whining about how all the reasons why he wasn't a champion could be blamed on others. And how much distain he has for Vettel really bleeds through here. Mark's story isn't unique in that he was the #2 driver to a more talented one and I hated hearing him complain so much. Could have been a better written and more compelling story about his humbleness in racing but instead it was a whine-factory about how everyone but himself were the reasons he didn't succeed as much as he thought he was entitled to. Mark was my favorite driver up until I read this book. Shame.
