Why new look Haas is a litmus test for Formula 1’s new era

OPINION: With teams outside the top three having struggled in Formula 1 in recent seasons, the rules changes introduced in 2022 should have more of an impact this season. How well Haas does, as the poster child for the kind of team that F1 wanted to be able to challenge at the front, is crucial

While Haas endured a bit of a rollercoaster ride in Formula 1 last season, the team’s momentum is finally on an upwards trajectory after a barren spell. Nothing proved that more than the context of its new livery launch earlier this week, as it proudly revealed the visual change prompted by new title sponsor Moneygram.

After the trauma of its half-season with Rich Energy, and the abrupt end to the partnership with Uralkali, both Gene Haas and Gunther Steiner had to ensure they carried out their due diligence to make sure they had some more solid footing with any new backers.
