Well I finished it. Here’s the Goodreads review. I can’t believe he has another book that has come out since this one and I’m only a little bit tempted to see if it’s worse

One thing that makes me giggle is that he haaaates Ralph Schumacher and is constantly shit talking him while exclusively referring to him as “Mick’s uncle”

Steiner describes Ayao Komatsu as “a walking Valium tablet” just in case anyone was wondering what the former Haas TP had to say about the current Haas TP. Gee I wonder why everyone seems to feel more chill at Haas these days

Well why bother with an editor when you’re writing something that is only going to be read by people who really love you from your ten minutes of DTS screen time and probably don’t care about good writing or actual insight

If this is a real thing you have to say then I think you need to start seriously questioning whether the book in question is worth writing

He makes the “as a prospective F1 team you have to prove you can add value to the sport” argument in reference to Andretti wanting to join and BOY it’s been a long time but that shit still pisses me off

He just described himself as “the GOAT” of talking???

ok actually this is pretty funny too

It’s CONSTANT throughout the book and so annoying

Just read the best sentence of the book so far: “Other teams have the corporate gene and we have Gene Haas.”

I’m 15% of the way through and the way this is written is so jarring. He just interrupted his own account of finding out that Russia was invading Ukraine to give an explanation of what porpoising is

Fork found in kitchen I fear

At one point in the first chapter he, in the same paragraph, randomly switches topics to bring up AD21 which he talks about for over a page for no discernible reason AND says he wouldn’t hire Adrian Newey if he had the chance because he’s “too exciting”

we are off to a bad start I fear (I’m already sooooo tired of this gimmick)

Oh good idea, thank you!
