Publishers Description: Jamie is right at his peak today, with the ideal mixture of raw speed and experience. He may well surpass my records in the touring car championship. Right at the moment Jamie is the best driver in V8 Supercars.' Mark Skaife, five-time Australian touring car champion + five-time Bathurst winner The Diary of My Championship Year is a unique glimpse into the life and mind of one of Australia's top sportsmen. This is Jamie Whincup's personal account of the year in which he won his second consecutive V8 Supercar Championship, starting from the big one at Bathurst. Jamie takes you inside TeamVodafone and unlocks the keys to winning with the most successful team in the world's toughest touring car competition. He holds nothing back, sharing the highs and lows through each and every moment of the V8 Supercar season. He reveals what makes Bathurst so special, his motivation for winning, and how he copes with failure. For the first time he talks about the controversial switch from Ford to Holden, his relationship with Craig Lowndes, his on-track rivalries and off-track escapes. It's all here as he celebrates at the end of 2009 and works to three-peat as champion in 2010.
