New Haas F1 boss Komatsu: “I’m not here to replace Steiner’s character”
Instead of trying to emulate Guenther Steiner’s larger-than-life character, Yoshihide Komatsu, the new team principal of Haas, aims to be the best version of himself and bring his own strengths to the team. He is focused on improvement and believes in transparency, honesty, and clear motivation as ways to empower and unite people within the team. Before making any changes, Komatsu wants to meet with as many staff members as possible and understand the strengths and weaknesses of Haas. One area of focus might be improving communication and the working relationship between Haas’s UK and Italian bases. While the team’s structure with two separate factories may have been beneficial in the past, Komatsu acknowledges that it may need to evolve in response to regulatory changes.
