Yes, so refreshing

Guenther is epic and his insight on the world is very interesting. Congrats Ben for getting him on and asking those questions that all of us would love to have answered.

[@KT.459]

I like how Guenther doesn't want to watch back or listen back to things so he doesn't change himself on any level, true authenticity on & off camera

[@commentforthealgo5383]

yes, i agree but also no self reflection.

[@leebridge9187]

Congratulations Ben. This was your best interview yet. I really like how you are not superficial in your questioning. As an older listener, I find that you're really getting deep into the personalities that you're interviewing, and that's really interesting to hear. Keep up the good work.

I've got to say Ben, this podcast is getting better and better. The guests you're having on lately is astonishing. Guenther is one hell of a guy. Looking forward to your US content, can't wait... 👍🏻

[@MartinOdd-g6n]

I don't like Gunther much, but he is a very straight forward person and that is very respectable, he did well not answering the question about targeting Mazepin directly, since Mick was more crashie than Mazepin has ever been

[@joeltaylor789]

Given the latest legal issues and debts to mazepin, I think he did very well not to answer questions about it. Why risk getting yourself into trouble when its all in the past? Mick was a lot better driver, a lot lot better

[@joeltaylor789]

This was fantastic. I absolutely love gunther bad his approach, especially when it comes to watxhing drive to survive. Hes so direct and honest. I think people can learn a lot from his mentality

Gunter is like a startup/turnaround operator. He’s an animal at getting something built and running, but seemed to get frustrated when his hunger for progress outweighed the owners/management.

[@bikecameraaction3334]

Gene Haas doesn't have any friends - he has customers, employees, and suppliers. I first met him in 1996 and did his PR for 20years. He doesn't do 'socialising'. He is a very introverted man whose focus are technical, engineering , and business challenges.

[@timhaywood6604]

Well done Ben some great questions there. How long did you have to prep for this interview , it’s excellent. I know Gunther isn’t the easiest person to interview but you really got him talking, and not much swearing 😂

[@RoadToSuccessOfficialPodcast]

Hahaha i had a good week to prep! But only an hour with him! Hopefully as we grow i can get more time / freedom in the chats

[@GeometryEX-hp9zs]

Haas made very, very stupid mistakes during Steiner's management. And they happened frequently. They didn't tighten the bolts more than once. If they could do better in logistics, Haas's performance might be much better. At least they could get back to the middle instead of the bottom. The team missed almost every opportunity to score more points because of various mistakes. Steiner is definitely responsible in this regard. He was blaming the drivers for those years. And he didn't manage the team well, both strategically and logistically. After Komatsu took over, the team never made stupid mistakes again. This proves that the team leader can really lead the team on the right track. And Steiner spent too much time shirking responsibility. I thought it was Grosjean's fault at first, but since Komatsu took over Haas, I realized that Steiner was the core of the whole incident. Grosjean was originally an unstable driver, and Steiner made it worse.

[@Cynical_Ninja]

Couldn't have said it better myself. He has loads of characteristic of a bad leader

[@Kevin_40]

him and max a match made in **fucking** heaven

[@rms-vp6hf]

Mr Haas is still there and the team is better than ever. Mr Steiner is doing podcasts and commentating and is better than ever. Clearly one was stopping the other from succeeding.

[@nathanielperry9654]

The team is not better than ever. In 2018 they were 5th in the constructors with a real shot of 4th for most of the year.

[@sdg198127]

Add to that, he didn't have a lot of say in the team, such as signings of drivers and a few other things

[@rms-vp6hf]

@@nathanielperry9654 the team is certainly better than ever and the results will come. 2018 was a good year for results but they were also running the previous year’s Ferrari, essentially. I like Steiner’s bluntness and personality, but to be “no BS” you at least need to be correct in your assumptions.

[@nathanielperry9654]

@@rms-vp6hf my brother in Christ…..in 2018 they scored 93 points and got close to the podium. Had Australia 2018 not happened, they would’ve eclipsed 100 points and been much closer to, or maybe would’ve even finished best of the rest in the constructors. Regardless of what car they were running, how you can say the 2024 team looks better than they did in 2018 with 31 points with 6 races to go baffles me

[@rms-vp6hf]

@@nathanielperry9654 it shouldn’t be. But it’s all good. Formula 1 is a great sport to know and multifaceted. 2018 was a good year for Haas just looking at the points, but they had a bunch of DF/DQ in almost a quarter of their races and relied on Ferrari a bunch. Like I said they are doing better than ever and the results will follow.

“Me and Gene were never friends”. That’s right, Gunter. You had an employer/employee relationship, which is different than a friendship. What other fundamental management errors did you make? And I actually like Gunter Steiner.

[@tqrules01]

No filter, that's why we love this guy!! 😆

[@jcsmith725]

I really like his logic around not watching Drive to Survive.. I think if and when he's completely done with F1 he will watch it and will enjoy it just like we all did. He's not wrong though. If he watches himself drop 47 F bombs in an episode (which I love) he may lose his sh*t in the future go to drop an F bomb and notice a camera and say FUDGE! I actually respect the hell out of his answer.
