Guenther Steiner, the 58-year-old Italian, has left Haas after being with the team for 10 years. It seems that Steiner was not offered a contract extension after the disappointing 2023 season. He was surprised by the decision and has not had the chance to say goodbye to his colleagues. There is some disappointment among the team about Steiner’s departure, and people are questioning why he was involved in other projects when the team was struggling.
