Former Haas team principal Guenther Steiner has revealed he is working on a second book about his time in F1.

Steiner, who departed Haas after the American team opted against renewing his contract for the 2024 season, published his first book last 🍃year.

‘Surviving to Driv꧑e’ was written as a diary of the year and took readers inside Ha💫as’ rollercoaster 2022 season, selling 150,000 copies.

Now, Steiner, whose popularity has skyrocketed in recent years thanks to Netflix’s Drive to Survive series giving him cult status, has confirmed 🉐a second book is in the works.

The book was already planned prior to his exit from Haas, and St🦋einer joked the story “maybe changes a little bit” now.

“We are working on the seꦿcond book at the moment,” Steiner told .

“That was planned already befor⛎e [leaving Haas]. Now, obviously, the story maybe changes a little bit!”

Steiner insists that the time he spent on hi🧜s first book, alongside his TV stardom, did not take his focus away ಞfrom Haas.

"I think people are overrating that, how much distraction that is, because i♛t isn't actually a lot of distraction from the daily job,” he explained.

“Obviously on the race weekends, you need to work mor⛦e. But for example, I didn't have 20 [sponsor] appearances a weekend, I had maybe three maximum.

“It's not like that is distracting, even writing the book. Obviously, a ghostw💖riter does it for you.

“Now 🔥I've got more time, but even now, we do two sessions a week of half an hour. We do one on Tuesday and one on Friday. That's all I do, he does the rest.

“You speak with him, but it's not like I spent days speaking with him. I know that some people have spent🦹 days speaking with these people, but I didn’t.

“I do🎃n't think that is a big factor. I think that there were more benefits for the team than anything else about this because they got a lot of sponsors."
