  Formula One has long maintained a glitzy aura that masks dark and strange goings-on in the background. But with the 2019 season came a force louder than Formula One could dream of muffling: William Storey, the founder of British energy drink startup Rich Energy. 
   
   
   
  Storey became a multimillion-dollar sponsor of the Haas Formula One team a year after records showed Rich Energy having a mere $770 in the bank. He equated his doubters to moon-landing truthers and publicly mocked both the Haas team and the entities winning legal disputes against him. But where were actual cans of Rich Energy, and did the supposed sponsorship funds exist? 
   
   
   
  In the six months between Storey's first race as a Formula One sponsor and his very public exit, he stole the spotlight with a loud mouth and an active Twitter account. Haas team boss Guenther Steiner once described the Rich Energy news cycle as: "I'm getting sick of answering these stupid fucking questions on a race weekend. I've never seen any fucking thing like this." No one else had, either. This book uncovers the complete, bizarre story.

  Synopsis: 
  A horse, a dog, and a longtime dream coming together—what more could a girl want? 
  Since the day I read my first Thoroughbred series book in fifth grade, I imagined crouching over the withers of a racehorse, feeling its muscles bunch together and release with each stride. But I wanted more than an image in my mind—I wanted it in real life. 
  It was my junior year of college when I left home to chase that dream, and for a minute I had it between my fingers. Gideon rode in the horse trailer and Sandi was curled into a ball in the backseat when I moved to Louisville. Within two weeks I was pounding down the track on young Thoroughbreds, impressing trainers with my bravery and skill. But soon, piece by piece, it began to crumble. Holding onto the dream, and my faith, was like grabbing water by the fistful and watching it slip between my fingers. 
  How could I keep going in this land of strangers and broken dreams? How could I trust the God who gives when He’s also the God who takes away? But how could I quit when the dream still stirred in my bones and Gideon was out there somewhere?

  Está atrapado en casa o no puede acceder a un campo de fútbol? ¿Está preocupado por la práctica y la buena forma física? 
  Este libro es su respuesta. 
  Ya sea una pandemia causada por un patógeno extremadamente infeccioso o un invierno duro que hace que se acumulen 3 metros de nieve en el campo de fútbol, hay veces que el fútbol se queda atrás. Como hemos descubierto, el fútbol no es más importante que la vida o la muerte, a pesar de las afirmaciones de lo contrario. 
  Muchos libros de entrenamiento requieren un equipo complejo, recursos abundantes e instalaciones fantásticas. Al escribir "Practique fútbol desde casa", buscamos ofrecer una guía para esos momentos en los que entrenamos solos, en nuestro patio trasero, con poco más que un balón y nuestro entorno inmediato. Llevar a cabo este trabajo adicional es importante tanto si somos profesionales que buscan perfeccionar nuestra técnica al más alto nivel (¿por qué si no los mejores profesionales construirían gimnasios caseros en sus lujosas casas?) o, más relevante para este libro, aficionados entusiastas o jugadores jóvenes que buscan desarrollar nuestro propio juego. 
  Incluso si no está sin moverse de casa durante una pandemia o en las profundidades del invierno, ganará mucho con este libro.
