Über diesen Titel

Brought to you by Penguin.

'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...'

Guenther Steiner is one of motor racing's biggest and most celebrated characters, known to millions for his show-stealing appearances on Netflix's hugely popular fly on the wall series, Drive to Survive.

In Surviving to Drive, the Haas team principal takes readers 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, Guenther takes us on the thrilling rollercoaster of life at the heart of high stakes motor racing.

Packed full of twists and turns, from hiring and firing drivers, balancing books, pre-season preparations, the design, launch and testing of a car - and of course, the race calendar itself - this is the first time that an F1 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, this is a fascinating and hugely entertaining account of the realities of running a Formula 1 team.

Kritikerstimmen

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. (Melanie Reid)
It's gripping to read. It's funny, it's real, it's exciting. It's a brilliant book. (Chris Evans)
Very colourful. Like having a conversation with Steiner. (Radio 4, Today)
Lifts the lid on life as a Formula One team principal. The book gives us honest, unfiltered Steiner.
A brilliant, brilliant book. (Matt Baker)
There are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, witty comments and rants galore. Just like Steiner is one of a kind , there's never been a book quite like this! (Autosport)
The new face of Formula One. The breakout star of Netflix's hit F1 series Drive to Survive. He is brutally honest. (Sathnam Sanghera)
A rare example of an active F1 boss putting his thoughts into print. (Alan Baldwin)
Outspoken, bullish, strangely endearing
A swearily quotable account of the hiring, firing and stresses of the Formula One pit lane.

Fun listen, good insights into the world of F1.
Was nice to see some events from a different perspective.

The 5 stars for presentation need to be prefixed with: buy the book in paper if accented English with missing th is something you can’t live with.

Authentic Günther

Great book and insights which are not sugar coated. If you like F1 and motorsport listen if you only follow the top teams, definitely listen and learn that it more than trophies.

Honest and genuine

The magic of this book is that he is the speaker. With his particular accent and his love for swearing. If you are into Formula One and especially Guenther Steiner, you have to get yourself a copy of this audio book!

If you love Guenther, this is a must have.

As a f1 fan and also a fan of drive to survive this has been a fun little insight on what the f1 season feels like for a team principal in a tough spot.

I really appreciate that Günther reads the audiobook, which gives the whole book a very genuine and personal feel.

I would recommend this if you are a Haas or Günther fan but it is essentially a diary of the last two seasons with a few remarks about his history and job as team principal.

Good insight on a stressful life

...you know what to expect. Don't expect a documentary about the life of an F1 team boss. Don't expect politically correct language. You can expect a diary of Guenther. You can expect honest opinions. You can expect an entertaining insight into his life, read by himself in his unique accent (which alone is worth it). If you are offended by certain curse words, don't buy this book. If you are a normal person, do buy it!

If you know Guenther...
