Legend has it that the Andrea Moda Formula One team of 1992 was the worst Grand Prix team of all time. It was certainly shambolic, hopelessly unprepared, questionably funded and politically antagonistic. Almost in spite of itself, and by a discreet cheat, it did manage to qualify for that year’s Monaco Grand Prix and by the time the police arrested the owner for fraud at the Belgian Grand Prix, the worst-ever legend had been born. No so, argues the author Ian Strathcarron: it may have been awful, but there were worse and in Andrea Moda – The Legend and the Truth he not only rejoices and despairs at the story of Andrea Moda Formula but the other garagisti of the time: EuroBrun, Osella, Zakspeed, Onyx, Rial, Life, Coloni, AGS, Fondmetal and Larousse. As he concludes, it was certainly fun while it lasted.

Apart from being an author of over a dozen books and chairman of Unicorn Publishing, Ian Strathcarron founded his own sports/ racing car company, Strathcarron Sports Cars, and is uniquely placed to chronicle the pitfalls of chaos on four wheels. The question becomes not so much ‘Where did it all go wrong?’ but ‘How could it ever have gone right?’
