Formula 1 | Haas, Steiner attacks McLaren and Racing Point: "They want to penalize us with the history of the B teams"
"We chose this model because the rules allow it", declared the Team Principal of the US team
Interviewed on the negotiations between the team and Liberty Media for the regulation that will come into force starting from the 2021 season, Gunther Steiner revealed how many teams are trying to break down the close collaboration network that includes Ferrari, Alfa Romeo Racing and Haas, so as to penalize two serious opponents in the fight for fourth place in the constructors' championship.
According to the Team Principal of the American team, in fact, Racing Point and McLaren would not look favorably on this way of operating, an aspect that would be creating fractures within the Strategy Group, given that Red Bull and Mercedes would intend to start a program similar to that of the Red Bull (Red Bull, albeit minimally, has already started it with Toro Rosso. ed.).
“They want to take something away from us to harm us and improve themselves,” said the Haas Team Principal. “We chose this model because the rules allow it and it has also proven to be valid, so why change it? Everyone can choose to follow this model. In any case, I'm not going to tell Renault what they can and can't do."
