Resumen del Editor

#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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Funny and revealing.” —The Guardian

“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

“It’s gripping to read. It’s funny, it’s real, it’s exciting. It’s a brilliant book.” —Chris Evans

What a @#$%smashing book!

Told by Günther from Günther's point of view...what more could you want? To show up at your door looking like a w@nker?

Entertaining and informative

Entertaining quick listen and an inside look at F1. Enjoyed the narration by the author himself!

Classic Wankers!

Epic book! I really enjoyed it and it was great seeing the inside behind the behind-the-scenes with the Formula One

Gotta love Guenther!!

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. Was great hearing the behind the scenes of F1. Also enjoyed hearing the way Haas came about and grew as a team. We will miss Guenther on the grid! Gene Haas is a true “wanker” for sacking our man!! Lol

Loved it!

It was exactly what I expected but better. Gunther Steiner is such a character. Audible needs to get him set up with an Audible Original Podcast.

Inside look at an F1 season

This is more of a journal than a book, but I appreciated the condor and the fact that Guenther recorded the book himself.

First hand storytelling from inside the belly of the F1 beast

If you’re a fan of F1 or Drive to Survive then this is a must listen. Although you can tell that Guenther is reading his words of a page it’s great to hear him speak his own words. What a wild ride!

Titlenshiuld have been: "Günther, unfiltered!"

A bit too much swearing, but that's Günther. otherwise very good. Good insights on what goes on in the F1 paddock. Failed to talk a bit about what are the minute technical differences that separare the top teams from the mid pack.

Good book well read

Thanks for telling it like it is. Enjoyed every minute. Write another. I bet there is more.

Amazing book for F1 and Drive to Survive fans

We are all here because we love Guenther, his personality and comic relief is a major part of why we love him. The fact he narrated it himself was a selling point for me. It was told in his words and his voice. I loved every minute of it and personally recommend it very highly. If you are a fan of either him or the sport you’ll enjoy it too
