Haas team principal Ayao Komatsu expressed confidence that the issues with the team’s bodywork will be resolved before the Australian Grand Prix following their overly aggressive design approach for the 2025 VF-25. The team faced problems during their filming day and pre-season testing with parts of the car detaching. Komatsu admitted the team’s design strategy was too ambitious, leading to the failures, which they aim to rectify for Melbourne. Despite the setbacks, Komatsu remains frustrated by the impact on the limited pre-season testing available, especially with new drivers on board. He believes Haas can compete with teams like Williams and Alpine in the midfield pack, noting their promising pace compared to rivals in the upcoming races.
