Haas targeting points finish in Singapore GP
Despite expecting to struggle, Haas surprised everyone and took advantage of Red Bull’s struggles to qualify both cars in the top 10 at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, with Magnussen in sixth and Hulkenberg in ninth. This is Magnussen’s best starting position since the Miami Grand Prix. The team’s goal for Sunday’s race is to secure points. Haas has had a strong qualifying performance throughout the season but struggled with race pace and tire degradation. The team is surprised by its performance in Singapore and hopes to learn from it. The long-run pace doesn’t seem as promising, but the team remains hopeful for a positive result. Haas currently sits in eighth place in the Constructors’ standings and will need to take advantage of their opportunity to gain ground on their rivals.
