Haas F1 Team has presented its car for its second season in Formula One.
Despite the leaked pictures of yesterday’s shake down in Barcelona, Haas F1 Team presented their new car under the name of VF-17, following last year’s VF-16.
About the livery, the car got darker with a darker grey and some black on the nose but we still find the usual red of the American team. Haas gets singular with its hollow shark fin with an elegant painting, making the car softer on the eyes. Haas’ nose remains very open and the front wing is less bent than other wings. Günther Steiner comments:
“I think the pedal box is the same, but all the rest is very different from last year’s car. You always try to make a faster car, which is normally a lighter car. Now we can put on more ballast and get better weight distribution. The aero is completely new, as are the tires, so we needed to have some built-in adjustability.”
Haas F1 Team is the penultimate team to present the car Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen with Santino Ferrucci as development driver. Toro Rosso will unveil their car in the evening.
