How rejuvenated Haas recovered its F1 mojo

US-owned but until recently Russian-backed, Haas seems to have reached a turning point in car performance after three gruesome seasons. And it needs to if it’s to attract fresh investment. Team boss Gunther Steiner tells Oleg Karpov how close Haas came to the abyss.

The last couple of years haven’t been easy for Gunther Steiner. Across 2020 and 2021, the Haas team he leads scored three points – which came from just two races out of 39. The season preceding these two barren years had provided scant returns too.

Last year felt particularly bleak. With a chassis that hadn’t been developed for almost three years and a pair of rookies as its 2021 line-up, Haas was coming to races with no hope of points.
