Surviving to Drive: A Year Inside Formula 1: An F1 Book

This book is the first of bought in about 20 years. Yes, 20 years. I've always read online accounting of just about everything there is out there but when I saw that Guenther wrote a book on the ups and down of Formula one, I had to have it. I can tell you this, BUCKLE UP !! This is not a book for the faint of heart, nor is it for children. Steiner has a very unique way of using the English language, one of a few he speaks. Even if you're not a race fan, I highly recommend that you watch "Drive to Survive" on Netflix. it's a gateway into this book and if you watch the series, you will understand why I suggested it. You will see firsthand how tough Formula one really is. As far as the book, I loved it and I highly recommend it . Get it !! read it !

If you are familiar with F1, like from Netflix's series, you will enjoy this book. Otherwise, probably not.

A great in depth look from the inside of an F1 team from one of the sport's true characters.

It's not quite an insight to the hows & whys of F1 or the tech, but basically Steiner's diary.Laughed out loud several times.

It seemed like I waited forever to get the book, had to wait what seemed like forever, in fact I waited for so long the initial order got canceled and I immediately reordered and it still took a couple weeks to get it.There is so much I learned about Gurnther and the Haas F1 Race team that I didn’t know. This is a book that’s actually pretty hard to put down after you start reading it. Every page and chapter has something so interesting you just keep reading.

Guenther is one of my favorite team principals in F1. I really liked this book. The diary format made it easier to read and it was pretty fast paced. It was also very funny. If you watched Drive to Survive, you know how Guenther's humour and jokes are and this book had plenty of them. However, at some point the book became repetitive and I got bored, but then it picked up or other things happened. All in all, it's a good book and it's worth reading.

And I loved it! I really enjoyed recapping the 2022 season from Guenther's viewpoint. This book had me laughing at times too. I found it quite enjoyable, and would recommend it to any fan of the sport. I saw Guenther narrated the audio book himself, and I enjoyed the book so much I might have to give it a listen next.

Guenther Steiner is a very fun narrator and his spelling of certain words (fok, jeezuz christ, etc.) is also pretty hilarious. The book feels a little harebrained, and it feels more like the diary entries of an overworked team principal that have been tied together as a whole.Happy to say that the book arrived in pristine condition with no wear on the spine or dust jacket.

If you’re a F1 fan, this is the book for you.Got it next day delivery and couldn’t put it down. Fantastic read

Un muy buen libro que nos permite conocer más a fondo la interna del equipo Haas y la historia y motivos de las decisiones tomadas por Guenther Steiner en el equipo, lo recomiendo.

Surviving To Drive by Guenther Steiner is a comprehensive look at the 2022 Formula 1 season through the eyes of Haas boss Guenther Steiner.The style is very personable and anyone who watches F1 will recognize the individual voice of Guenther Steiner. This book is written in the style of the way Guenther Steiner talks. His huge personality shines through the pages.Guenther Steiner is down to earth. He tells it as it is and he has a sense of humor.For the F1 fan, Surviving To Drive is a ‘must-have’ and a ‘must-read.’ You will relive the 2022 season and glimpse behind the scenes.Guenther Steiner is a good team man. He recognizes the need for everyone to pull together. “A team is only as good as the people it has working for it and we’ve got some of the best.”He also recognizes the need to get on with the other F1 teams for the good of the sport. “As much as I disagree with what this guy thinks … we have to remember that ultimately we all sit under the same tree.”I thoroughly enjoyed Surviving To Drive. The essence of Guenther Steiner leaps from the pages. It is a fabulous read for the F1 fan, whatever driver or team you support.

The book contains lots of content about leading a team and how to reach strong development within itself. Günther‘s just as funny as you might know him if you follow the sport.
