Racing is often remembered through engines, drivers, teams and famous circuits, but every victory depends on a smaller and less visible battle: the contact patch between tyre and road.

The Tire War: Grip, Rivalry, and the Hidden Battle That Decides Motorsport tells the fact-based story of racing tyres as one of motorsport's most decisive technologies. From early road-derived rubber to slicks, radials, wet-weather tyres, qualifying compounds, endurance tyres, rally tyres, MotoGP tyres and modern single-supplier systems, this book follows the companies, regulations, failures and innovations that shaped the pursuit of grip.
