If you’ve watched “Drive to Survive”, then it will come as little surprise that Guenther Steiner gets just 24 words into his new book before dropping a profanity.
The first big worry for Steiner comes after Schumacher’s crash in Monaco, which split the Haas car in two and resulted in damage Steiner claims came to almost $1 million. It was the second time Schumacher had totaled a car in three months. “The second time it happens you think, ‘Hang on, something’s not right here,’” Steiner writes.
Steiner does regularly take aim at Mick’s uncle, Ralf Schumacher, an ex-F1 driver who now works for German TV, for public comments about the situation, including claiming Steiner did not speak with Mick or help him. Ralf is referred to by name once, and thereafter as “Mick’s uncle”.
