À propos de cet audio
#1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER • A high-octane, no-holds-barred account of a year inside Formula 1 from Haas team principal Guenther Steiner, star of Drive to Survive, one of the most successful Netflix series of all time
“People talk about football managers being under pressure. Trust me, that's nothing. Pressure is watching one of your drivers hit a barrier at 190mph and exploding before your eyes...”
In Surviving to Drive, Haas team principal Guenther Steiner brings listeners inside his Formula 1 team for the entirety of the 2022 season, giving an unobstructed view of what really takes place behind the scenes. Through this unique lens, Steiner guides listeners on the thrilling rollercoaster of life at the heart of high-stakes motor racing. Packed full of twists and turns, from pre-season preparations to hiring and firing drivers, from the design, launch, and testing of a car to the race calendar itself–Surviving to Drive is the first time that an Formula 1 team has allowed an acting team principal to tell the full story of a whole season.
Uncompromising and searingly honest, told in Steiner's inimitable style, Surviving to Drive is a fascinating and hugely entertaining account of the realities of running a Formula 1 team.

“Fearless and candid, Surviving to Drive reads like the night-time confessions of a football manager who is fighting to stay in the Premier League. A gleeful guide to a bonkers sport from a loveable rogue insider.” —The Times

This isn't a biography, it's a diary detailing an entire F1 season from his perspective as the Team Principal. You'll hear his perpsectives on various events and challenges, often written shortly after they take place. He talks not only about the season, but the off times as well, where people in his position don't take any rest, but just switch to longer-term planning. He also sprinkles in the occasional tale of his earlier life in other forms of racing, though I wish there were more of these.
Haas F1 is a team that is rather famous for its bad luck and that's detailed extensively in this year. While so many of the events are beyond Steiner's control, he always reminds us that the buck stops with him and whether things are directly his fault or not, that's part of the job. Even though it's of a struggling team, I think this shows what a high quality leader they have in him, as he's not only unwilling to take crap from others, but also unwilling to pass the buck for misfortune to others.
Steiner's not a professional reader, nor is English his first language and both of those are shown in his reading. I think some people will have a hard time following what he says, but this book wouldn't be the same if he didn't read it so I'm glad he did.
If you're into F1 or just a Guenther Steiner fan, this is an interesting insight into his process and how he handles adversity.
