Inhaltsangabe

By the mid-1980s, March Engineering was a dominant name in auto racing-of the the 33 cars to start the 1984 Indianapolis 500, 29 were built by March. Back in Europe, March was about to win the first of three Formula 3000 championships and return to Formula 1, where Jackie Stewart had recorded March's first Grand Prix victory in 1970. This biography of the team is a fascinating tale of achievement and downfall, documenting not only two decades of success, but the reasons for March's collapse in 1989.
