Haas won’t ‘introduce updates indiscriminately’

Guenther Steiner says “if goes well” Haas will upgrade their car at the Hungarian GP, but he sees no reason to “indiscriminately” throw updates at the car.

Haas brought in their first double points-haul of this championship at the British Grand Prix where Mick Schumacher was P8 with Kevin Magnussen taking the chequered flag in tenth place.

While the result was much-celebrated as it was Schumacher’s first-ever Formula 1 World Championship points, it was even more impressive as Haas are the only ones on the grid yet to update their car.

The VF-22 that scored five points at Silverstone is the exact same car that Haas ran on the final day of pre-season testing back in March.

Team boss Steiner stands by the decision not to trial new parts just because everyone else is.

“I’ve always said that we don’t just introduce updates indiscriminately because everyone else does too,” he said as per Motorsport.com. “We walk our own path.

“We only come up with it when we think we’re making a step with it. It’s not for the stage.”

But, he added, “if all goes well, for Hungary that is just before the summer break.

“Hopefully we will get more performance out of the car that way.”
