Bold Move: Hulkenberg Takes a Leap of Faith with Old-Spec Haas F1 Car for Las Vegas GP

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Haas has revealed its two drivers will run separate cars at this weekend’s Las Vegas Grand Prix, with Nico Hulkenberg

The Haas Formula 1 team is currently struggling in the Constructors’ Championship, sitting at the bottom with only 12 points and just one point in the past 11 rounds. Despite introducing a new upgrade package in Austin, the team hasn’t been able to improve its performance. With two races left in the season, Haas will have its drivers running different configurations of its 2023 charger based on their preferences. The decision was not made for comparison tests, but rather to give each driver the setup they feel most comfortable with. Haas’ main issue this season has been excessive tire degradation, preventing them from translating good qualifying results into points. However, the team is hopeful that the Las Vegas race, with its expected low track temperatures, will be less challenging in terms of tire degradation than the one in Brazil. The Haas team is excited to have three races in the United States, as it is an American team. Each race has its own unique characteristics and atmosphere, such as the traditional race in Austin, the party-like atmosphere in Miami, and the unknown in Vegas.
