Haas boss Guenther Steiner on Netflix’s Drive To Survive: “I’m not an actor” - “not ashamed” of Mick Schumacher criticism

The fifth series of the F1 show, filmed last season, showed multiple exa☂mples of the Haas team principal criticising his own driver and making plans to replace him, which eventually he did do.
Many of Steiner’s private comments about Schumacher - 🦄such as “you cannot buy it or develop [talent]” - demonstrated the ruthlessness required to lead a successful F1 team.
“I didn’t watch it, but ꧋I made the comments so I remember some of the things I⛎ say,” Steiner explained at the 2023 season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix.
“Obviously ‘Drive To Survive’ shows the worst and the most tricky moments𓄧. So obviously that’s what the show needs to do.
“Whatever was said, was said. I cannot take that one back and it was decided not to take it out because it you have nothing to hide and it is what it is. I’m not🐭 ashamed of it.
“I can explain it with ‘tܫhe heat of the moment’. As a racer you say things I wouldn’t say now. But things like this happen in racing.”

Steiner insists he has never watched t🎶he Netflix show himself despite being one of its main stars: “I’ve got one team member who watches this and I let somebody else decide.
“It’s always difficult for me to have an opinion about myself, it’s very difficult. Put yourself in my shoes, you know what I mean? The best thing is they don’t show anythi𒁏ng. But is that good? No.
“You don’t get involved directly with your own performance because I’m not an actor, I don’t judge if I ‘acted’ good or not.ℱ I did my job and I think I judge my job from what we achieve at the🍌 race track. If Netflix looks good or bad, I don’t really care about that.”
