Perfect For The F1 Fan

Unfiltered by Guenther Steiner is an entertaining look at the ten years that the author was at the helm of the F1 team Haas.

From its’ inception to the end of 2023 the reader is immersed in the life of the Haas team. We see the drive of Guenther Steiner to bring the F1 team to life, and his no-nonsense attitude to running the team.

There were certain ups and downs – with driver rivalries, COVID, and the sponsorship of by a Russian institution and therefore a Russian driver as Russia invaded Ukraine. Whatever life threw at Guenther Steiner; he always found a solution.

Guenther Steiner is very down to earth. He has the right attitude. “I don’t have time to worry about things I cannot change.” He is a very big personality and extremely likable, a real people-person.

Guenther Steiner believes that life is for living. “Just chill out, do the best you can, keep your eyes open and enjoy the ride.” And that is just what the reader does throughout the book.

In Unfiltered, the reader is reminded of certain F1 events – the awful crash of Romain Grosjean in the fireball that he walked away from; and the time that K Mag was on pole!

Unfiltered is a book to be savored by the F1 fan. It is a welcome addition to one’s personal library. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and am certainly hoping that Guenther Steiner will pick up his pen once more.

A word of caution: the book is written in the same style that Guenther Steiner speaks, some readers may not like the language he uses.
