Guenther Steiner gets his own 'swear jar'

Guenther Steiner's verbal antics in the Netflix docuseries 'Drive to Survive' have been well chronicled.

But thanks to Formula 1 superfan Ana Colina who follows the sport all over the world, the Haas boss is likely to rein in his foul - although entertaining - language when his team's affairs don't go according to plan.

Ana had a dedicated 'swear jar' made for Guenther, and in Baku she gifted it to the Italian who readily accepted the tribute.

Whether the jar will quickly get filled or not will likely depend on… Romain Grosjean.

 

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
