What next for the Haas F1 revival story?
From pointless for a whole campaign to fifth place in the 2022 Formula 1 season opener. Haas has come a long way in a short time, so what can it achieve?
Formula 1 loves to shout about the success of Drive to Survive. And rightly so. It took an already popular motorsport division and delivered it directly to the masses via our modern binge-watching fascination. Most teams have varying and intriguing stories to follow across its seasons, but perhaps none more so than Haas. And yet the American squad is the team with the shortest F1 history.
Since Drive to Survive made its debut ahead of the 2019 season, its cameras have captured plenty of Haas stories. The fallouts between former team-mates Kevin Magnussen and Romain Grosjean in 2018-19 were among them, while its hero-to-zero swing in results in those years made a star out of sweary and likeable team boss Gunther Steiner. But the tales have become more painful over the years.

Alex Kalinauckas is Autosport's Grand Prix Editor, covering every Formula 1 race since the start of 2020. After completing a master's degree in journalism at Goldsmiths College University of London in 2014, he worked for a range of motorsport and technology publications while covering national racing as an Autosport freelancer.
A lifelong motorsport fan - no one in his family can explain quite how or why such a development first occurred - Alex joined the Autosport staff in April 2017 as the magazine’s Assistant Editor covering Formula 2 and GP3, before being made Formula E correspondent and Autosport.com’s Plus Editor in March 2018. He lives in north-east London and is constantly frustrated by the Central Line.
