Haas profile

Of the new teams to enter F1 recently, Haas are easily the most impressive after a remarkable first season in the sport.
The team hit the ground running with a remarkable sixth-place finish in Australia, before going one better at the next race in Bahrain with fifth.
Those early points set the team up for the season as they finished eighth in the constructors' championship, ahead of the established names of Renault and Sauber as well as Manor.
2017, though, will be another challenge altogether. The team received a lot of assistance from Ferrari before their debut - even being dubbed by some as a Ferrari junior team - and were not limited by windtunnel restrictions as they weren't part of the championship.
The build of this year's car will have had to adhere to CFD and windtunnel restrictions, and that had to be balanced with development of their 2016 challenger during the season.
With Kevin Magnussen recruited over the winter to partner Romain Grosjean, Haas have a strong driver line-up as they look to build in their sophomore. If they can get on top of their brake problems, Haas could establish themselves as regular points scorers.
