thats Kawaii culture for you, the same reason Yuki does so well popularity wise.

Hope him the best and bring more competition… but Hass problems are rooted way deeper that a change in Team Principal would not solve… that man is not a magician.

He wont do anything without financial backing from Haas.

@@redzone5655 Similar to Ferrari, I hope they take steps to reset and address them with a new perspective. I'm not sure it's the principal's station to say that X department needs improving, please hire someone else, but it might be a domino in the right direction. Having said that, Ferrari haven't done much to fix their strategy problems over so many different team configurations (drivers and principals), so I guess we'll see...

Same

Agreed, starting on a good footing at least.

Exactly, he hasn't done anything wrong. Gene fired Gunther and this guy took the opportunity in front of him. Most people would do the same. Plus paying his respects to Gunther is a good way to start.

Only history will tell. Good day. RSA.

Sure, but to be fair, what else are you going to say? Guenther has pieced together every sponsorship on that car, it's not like you can badmouth the guy and not expect repercussions. Anyway, I have no doubt that it's a poisoned chalice. Haas is the least funded team on the grid, with an owner that really doesn't care and they just got rid of a marketing wizard, no doubt there will be even less money available next year and now Gene wants to finish mid-table...good bloody luck.

@@Chzydawg : All the Haas machines at the other nine teams will help pay for it.

Not impressed by the inept questions asked of him! 90% of these journalists are a joke….

Yeah, though to be fair, Haas would have had to approve of all the questions beforehand. It's not like they would have let anything spicy get into the interview.

Honestly Craig is one of the worst.. f1 teams need to let f1 KZfaqrs interview more

At least from the documentary no matter how fake it is, Gunther is not a manager who micromanage a lot. He has a lot of stability in his time in Haas. If he were to produce insight, he would have done it. I don't really think it will work but you will never know.

@@Peter-hz3vs gunther isn't/wasn't as much of a technical guy as Ayao though.

@@Peter-hz3vs Posting so I can see if this ages like milk or wine.

@@0Synergy I'm not saying he's gonna do it in his first season. But we shall see how he gets on.

How does a team who spent the bare minimum, and out source as much as possible ever expect better results than other teams

Craig Slater is the Damien Day of motorsport journalism......

Craig is useless 😂

Yes. He is useless. The interview of Guenther after the firing was also terrible.

The usual standard of question from Craig unfortunately.

Sky Sports doesn't have the top F1 reporters, that's a fact in my book.😊

🤘🤘

I remember him as Romain Grosjean's race engineer in lotus

That's not progress that's a success

Facts finally the Netflix character is gone

Haas decided enough popularity bs lets try a shot at keeping qualyfying positions at end of the race where they’re able to reach q3

Yeah...i think gunther wasn't the best for the modern era,but then again gene must invest more .. they cant have a half baked car in this era also...they will always be the 10th team

Absolutely, well said

That there my friend would be a match made in heaven ....it would be epic 😎 👌 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 F1 ratings would sky rocket for sure 🤣🤣

@@teammusketeers Yuki Max and Guenther f1 make it happen 💥

@@BL4K_B4BIES yes 😁😁😁😁

Why would Honda buy Haas in the future? If they would do it, they would only do it for the license. But they should buy Aston Martin...

Well Honda wanted to buy Red Bull to be a works team. Horner said no and that's partially why they no longer supply Red Bull with powertrains. A business like Honda isn't going to want an outspoken team principal like Gunther, but a Japanese manager makes it a far more appealing deal for them. Haas are going to be the cheaper option and don't carry the name of an actual car company

@@adeparker Honda's old CEO wanted to quit F1 and focus on improving their road-going car business. Porsche are the ones who wanted to buy RB

@@adeparker The rumors about Honda wanting to buy Red Bull were always just rumors. Red Bull at the times of those rumors were still in talk with Porsche and that deal was all but finalized, so even if it was a real proposition, they couldn't even consider it. Honda did inform years ago about STR, but the terms were too high (Marko wanted the McLaren deal). Honda is still supplying RBPT and they will do this until 2026. Red Bull Power Trains was supposed to produce, manage and support the Honda engine from 2022 and onward but they weren't ready to do this, and so they asked Honda for a bridge year, and soon this would become a period that will go until 2026. So it's basically that same factory deal they had, but now they are paying Honda for the engine. RBPT for now is just a name and they do close to zero work on the PU. Marko has told that they aren't even allowed to open the crates they get in from Japan. Honda have worked with several blunt managers in racing. Honestly, it's kinda what most racing people are like. But also, I personally think it's a bit shortsighted to call Steiner a overly blunt person. From what I've heard, he is really polite and open. Yes, he swears and he will tell you his truth, but so will others. I think the likes of Marko are far worse. And Honda can always bring someone in who is more to their liking. The fact that Komatsu is teamboss at Haas doesn't matter. If they wanted him, they could just get him. But since he's not a Honda guy, they'd probably put in someone from their own organization, like Masashi Yamamoto. Btw, I do hope we'll see a Honda F1 team. The rout they took with Aston Martin, I don't understand. It has the same problem as Red Bull had, which is that close to zero of the credit will go to Honda and their brand won't really profit from it. A lot of people, even F1 fans, think that really is the Aston Martin F1 team and that it;s a singe organization under Stroll, while in fact there is no shared infrastructure and the team is a private team sponsored by Aston Martin.
