Surviving to Drive

A Year Inside Formula 1: An F1 Book

De: Guenther Steiner

Narrado por: Guenther Steiner

#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

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

I want more

Really great book i hope there are more to come, and listening directly from Gunther made ir better

Different perspective

Really enjoyed getting a different view of how a Formula 1 team works and how much work goes into it by the the TP's. Best part was it being narrated by Guenther, I don't think it would have been good otherwise.

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

Outstanding storyteller!

Geunther's accent is a bit difficult at first, but doesn't take long to get used to it. His sense of humor is fantastic and his ability to recount the various paths that brought him to Formula 1 is truly wonderful. Excellent read!

Fucking brilliant perspective.

The author's vision of the F1 reality is raw and well-detailed—an ambitious project for one of the top sports in the world.
Great stories, great analysis. Loved that book.

An Original

Gunther Steiner is in a class of his own. His unique storytelling style had me laughing non-stop. Throughout the ups and downs of a Formula 1 season, Guenther gives his audience a behind the scenes look at running a team while keeping it fun. I hope he follows up with another.

Pretty awesome for a bunch of wankers

Love F1 and had my fingers crossed that this would be great. It was. Totally worth it and I hope there’s a follow up. Go Guenther go.
