Haas F1 team principal Guenther Steiner refuses to take immediate inspiration from Red Bull’s design despite world champion Red Bull Racing’s performance. Guenther Steiner has warned once morest simply following Red Bull on F1 car design, insisting the Haas F1 team will wait until they are ‘100% sure’ that it will benefit them. .
Red Bull Racing’s dominance at the opening round of 2023 has caused many to reassess their development plans for the season, with former rivals Mercedes opting for the W14 at the opening race in Bahrain. It was notable for declaring the car ‘wrong direction’. Carlos Sainz also urged Ferrari, which fell far behind in Saudi Arabia, to review the direction of its machine design, but team principal Frédéric Vasseur denied changing its design philosophy. Aston Martin also came under fire from Red Bull for building a car with design features similar to the RB18 for the 2022 Spanish Grand Prix. However, Haas F1 team principal Steiner stressed his belief in the 2023 car over the weekend of the Miami Grand Prix, saying a design overhaul would likely take place in 2024. “We are always striving and we have tried different concepts. You can’t completely jump to what Red Bull is doing. You can’t jump with the chassis, the cooling system and the radiators,” said Steiner. . “I think we’re trying to do more in that direction and obviously everyone is trying to test something, but until you’re 100% sure it’s a step forward, why go there? “We’re evaluating where to go next year, but this year it’s more like trying to get some air elsewhere and see if it works. But now. Copying Red Bull’s bodywork as it is doesn’t mean it’s going to be fast, because there are a lot of things around it that need to be changed in order to make that happen. No, but at the moment I think our car in midfield is still quite strong, so there is no panic reaction to go there.” Just as some people have had a good day, we will have a good result.” When asked when the Haas F1 team would decide on the 2024 car design, Steiner replied, “June or July.” answered.
