Official: Gutierrez in 2016 with Haas

The news had been in the air for several weeks, but only yesterday evening did it become official. In 2016 Esteban Gutierrez will flank Grosjean behind the wheel of the new entry Haas.

“It's a great opportunity – declared the Mexican, current Ferrari reserve – Gene has shown that he has faith in me and I in the potential of his project. I believe that together we will be able to achieve many goals. Furthermore, racing powered by a Maranello engine will be something special."

“We met during visits to the Scuderia base and having seen his CV we understood that he could also be an interesting choice in terms of feedback on the working method – explained the owner – He is young but experienced and hungry for success . With Romain he will form an excellent couple. In this way, entering the top ten will be feasible."
