Goals for the 2022 season and beyond are revealed by Haas

According to team president Guenther Steiner, Haas has not given up on achieving podiums and race wins in Formula 1.

Guenther Steiner, the team’s boss, has detailed the team’s goals for the 2022 season, when Formula One will enter a new era with revised regulations.

Among many other improvements, next year’s F1 cars will have a ‘ground effect’ aerodynamic concept and simpler front/rear wings, with the goal of allowing cars to follow one other more closely and promoting wheel-to-wheel racing.

As they attempt to move up the pecking order, Haas moved their focus to the new regulations ahead of most other F1 teams, and Steiner is targeting regular points finishes in 2022.

Apart from that, Steiner believes podiums and victories are “achievable” for Haas, though he does not expect them anytime soon.

“Next year [the goal is] to be back in the midfield, to fight for points,” said Steiner in an interview .

“Mid-to-long term, it is to get podiums and hopefully at some stage, Haas can get wins.

“I’m realistic about it, that is not a short or mid-term thing. With the budget caps that are coming in, the playing field should get more even. That is what we are working on and I think it’s achievable.”

After replacing the relatively experienced Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen with an all-rookie line-up of Nikita Mazepin and Mick Schumacher in 2021, Steiner confesses that he had to adapt his approach as a team boss.

Despite the fact that he has yet to score a point this season, Steiner is certain that his hard effort will pay off in 2022.

“I had to change because I can’t expect rookies to be at the level the other guys were, because the other guys were on a pretty good level,” added Steiner.

“With these guys, I need to explain more why things happen and how they happen. That is what I try to do.

“When I see they are ready to be pushed harder, that is what I will do, but in the moment, I try to give them as much as I can of my experience, so they are getting prepared quicker.”
