Will make for interesting watching. I don't know who they will choose But I'm calling this much right now: whoever they do pick, there will be lots of armchair team mangers on the interwebs offering criticism of how "Steiner had the opportunity to transform Haas into a podium challenger and blew it". LOLOLOLOLOL

Functionally Haas serve to assist Ferrari with respect to development. Data points are gained from the tech and equipment Haas buy from them. Additional to this is the fact that now Haas will take 1 driver for Ferrari development and gain a discount on the cost of the motors. 11million is the figure Im aware of. Will be interesting if that is true and what drivers take the seats. No matter that, Haas are slow and I expect ZERO increase in position or speed lol.
