Haas still chasing full answer over F1 car tyre woes
The Haas F1 Team, an American-owned outfit, has been struggling to understand why its VF-23 car performs well in qualifying but struggles with tire management during races. Despite introducing an upgrade to improve aerodynamics, the team has not found a clear solution or direction to address the issue. As they prepare for the launch of their 2024 car, new boss Ayao Komatsu acknowledges that they have not fully resolved the tire problem but have a decent idea of where to focus their efforts. Haas has faced similar issues in the past, and Komatsu believes that proper communication and integration between different departments within the team may be a factor contributing to the problem. To make progress, he aims to improve working practices and ensure robust communication and decision-making processes within the team.
