My Greatest Defeat by Will Buxton is a captivating collection of personal stories from 20 of the most celebrated racing drivers in the world. Spanning Formula 1, IndyCar, NASCAR, Le Mans, and Rally, this book offers a close look at the defining moments of vulnerability and struggle in the drivers’  careers. Rather than focusing on their victories, Buxton reveals the human side of these athletes, exploring the emotional challenges and setbacks that shaped them. With unfiltered honesty, each driver reflects on their toughest defeat and how it impacted their lives, both on and off the track.
