Surviving to Drive by Günther Steiner
5.0
Oh. My. Goodness. When I saw Guenther Steiner had a book coming, I was interested. When I saw it was read by the man himself, I wasted absolutely not one second in preordering the book on Audible. I was alllll over this and damn, if it didn’t exceed my hopes and dreams.
This is probably one of my favourite audiobook experiences. I loved the fact Steiner just came across as genuine, like it was just a man having a chat and sharing stories about his day and his job and sometimes his past, it was great. It felt authentic, and I love his self deprecating sense of humour. I love the Haas team, I love Steiner, and this book delivered. It made me laugh a lot and it also offered great insight into managing the team but also more of the behind the scenes in F1. The format was great, too, as it didn’t become a stuffy autobiography, and I was thrilled that Steiner’s writing style reflected himself and was exactly what I was hoping it would be, it was authentic (I was worried that publishers/lawyers/whoever would have stifled his voice, but this did not happen).
I would definitely buy more books from Steiner if they come, genuinely this was such a blast, and can definitely recommend this.
