F1 | Grosjean optimistic: “The VF18 is the best Haas I've ever driven”

After the excellent performances shown during the pre-season tests, Romain Grosjean is ready to fly to Melbourne for the first round of this 2018 world championship. According to what was declared by the French pilot, the American Scuderia has put together a nice package for 2018, especially the future perspective, and expects great things during the next championship. The Frenchman did not mince words to explain the VF18, defining it “Best Haas I've ever driven". A nice compliment for a driver who, over the last few years, has demonstrated a certain "criticality" towards his team. The objective in Australia will be to battle for sixth place, fighting for the position behind Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes.

Here are the French words: "The VF18 has a very good base and the sensations I had during the tests were positive. The feeling in the car is excellent. We know where to intervene to improve performance and I think we will work on it in the coming weeks. The car is well balanced and has potential that drivers like. I have no problem saying it's probably the best Haas I've ever driven. We have prepared very well for 2018 and hope to achieve good results. Development will be important and we will try to continue on this path until the end of the world championship. We are optimistic."
