Guenther Steiner Still Living In The F1 Fast Lane

Guenther Steiner, the former team principal of Haas, has transitioned into a role as a TV pundit while expressing interest in owning an F1 team if the right opportunity arises. Since Haas entered Formula 1 in 2016, Steiner has played a pivotal role in the team's development, leading them to a commendable fifth-place finish in the Constructors' Championship in 2018. This achievement marked a significant milestone for the first all-American-led team in three decades. Despite initially seeking more time at home after leaving Haas, Steiner found himself inundated with offers and opportunities, which he has embraced. He has stated that he feels privileged to choose his engagements and is enjoying the variety of work that has come his way. His involvement with events like the Miami GP highlights his commitment to the sport. Steiner has also acknowledged the influence of the Netflix docuseries 'Drive to Survive,' which has significantly contributed to the growth of Formula 1's fanbase in the United States since its launch in 2019. The series has not only elevated the profiles of drivers but also team principals, including Steiner himself. Looking ahead, Steiner remains optimistic about the competitiveness of the sport, despite some fans expressing boredom with the current dominance of Max Verstappen and Red Bull Racing. He believes that the excitement and unpredictability of racing will return, keeping fans engaged.
