CBS plans TV comedy show with Haas F1 boss Steiner

American TV network CBS is planning a workplace-based comedy show with Haas Formula 1 team principal Guenther Steiner.

According to a report on leading Hollywood website Deadline, CBS is in the ‘early stages of developing a single-camera workplace comedy’ with Steiner, who will be a non-writing executive producer of the show.

The fictional series will be set in the world of sports, with the central character being a ‘Steiner-esque’ boss at the head of the team.

Steiner became a household name when Netflix’s F1 docuseries Drive To Survive first aired in 2019, and his no-nonsense approach was magnified by its fly-on-the-wall footage.

His colourful use of language has made him a huge fan favourite, with many of his (often swear-laden) phrases subsequently appearing on T-shirts.
