Haas have kicked off the Formula 1 'launch season' by revealing the first shots of their new car for the sport's overhauled technical regulations. Although not an official launch event, Haas presented how the VF-22 will look via a selection of studio render images. It is the first car to emerge from Haas' new design office - led by Technical Director Simone Resta - next to the Ferrari factory in Maranello, with F1's 'ground effect' aerodynamic concept, bigger wheels and various other changes taking effect . The livery is largely an evolution of the clean white, blue and red scheme introduced last season – the corporate colours of title sponsor Uralkali. Also included on the livery are partners such as 1&1, IONOS, Under Armour, and Tricorp, while Haas Automation remain emblazoned on the side of the car.
Haas to launch the real VF-22 at pre-season testing
RacingNews365.com understands that Haas will stage a physical launch on the opening day of the first pre-season test session in Barcelona (23 February), an approach the team have adopted every year since entering F1 in 2016. Haas - which finished at the foot of the F1 standings in 2021, as they focused on the development of their 2022 car - will field an unchanged driver line-up of Mick Schumacher and Nikita Mazepin this year.
