Günther Steiner: “We can fight in the middle of the grid”

The start of the season is, to say the least, very complicated on the side of Haas. Lagging behind, the American team was unable to break away from the back of the grid and continued poor performances. At Silverstone, the VF-20, with a certainly different racing strategy, showed that it had the resources to stand up to the other single-seaters, outside the Top 3. Enough to encourage the team for the upcoming events.

« We realized last weekend that the car did not have a bad race pace. Romain was competitive in the middle of the grid, underlined Günther Steiner who knows the areas to improve for the races to come. What we need to do is improve in qualifying, which is very difficult at the moment ».

Aware of the difficulties encountered, the Swiss leader is not discouraged. “ We learned that we can fight in the middle of the grid. We just need to get the best out of qualifying so that we can start the races in a good position and therefore be able to fight. Starting at the back, it is very difficult to move forward with such dirty air. It is very difficult to exceed ". At work.
