Excerpt :
"Comment présenter un homme qu'on ne présente plus ?
Les mots que je cherchais vinrent du sujet lui-même. Dans l'avant-propos d'un ouvrage sur Mario Andretti, Paul Newman écrivit : "Je me demande ce que je pourrais ajouter à tout ce que l'on sait déjà." On en sait beaucoup sur Paul Léonard Newman. L'acteur titulaire d'Academy Awards. Le père de quatre filles et d'un fils et le grand-père de huit petits-enfants. L'époux aimant de Joanne Woodward tout au long d'une union de cinquante années et en dépit des problèmes posés par le mélange de deux grandes carrières à Hollywood. Le réalisateur et le producteur. Le philanthrope actif. Et, naturellement, le pilote automobile et le propriétaire d'écuries automobiles. Plusieurs ouvrages ont déjà été écrits sur l'existence légendaire de Paul Newman. Sa disparition le 26 septembre 2008 en inspirera sans doute bien d'autres. Pourtant, très peu ont exploré ou exploreront cette passion nourrie à l'essence qui fit partie de sa personnalité complexe et variée. C'est justement-là notre propos.
Newman a toujours montré de l'intérêt envers les automobiles. Mais, bien typique de son comportement discret et presque effacé, il évita toujours les trop spectaculaires Jaguar et autres Lamborghini en faveur de plus banales Volkswagen ou Volvo ; des autos faussement ordinaires car modifiées pour atteindre d'incroyables vitesses. Le film Winning tourné en 1968, dans lequel il partageait la vedette avec son épouse et Robert Wagner, libéra sa passion latente pour le sport automobile. Ce fut aussi un beau final lorsque le dernier emploi de Paul Newman au cinéma consista à être la voix de Doc Hudson dans le film Cars de Pixar, produit en 2005, et traitant de l'automobile et de la course.
