Guenther Steiner isn't shutting the door on Formula 1, but he's not coming back for just any seat. The former Haas boss told the Up To Speed podcast he'd only return for a "project" he can build from scratch—something that challenges him beyond a job title. Since getting ousted from the American team in January 2024, Steiner has stayed busy as a TV pundit, Red Flags Podcast regular, and part-owner of Red Bull KTM Tech3's MotoGP operation. The 61-year-old made it clear he's drawn to opportunities where he can shape the future, not just clock in. He joked that breaking into television was harder than starting an F1 team, though he's still chasing David Coulthard's level of polish on camera. For now, Steiner's keeping his options open, but any team hoping to lure him back needs to offer more than a desk and a headset—they need a blank canvas.
