“When you need to make efficiency, you look in everything,” said Steiner to Motorsport.com. “When you need money to invest in development, because we have the cost cap, where do you put it? You have six people out there, or a quarter of a million on car updates? I know what we are doing. And the guys came up with that idea, I said if I need to stay inside, I have no problems as well. I don’t need to be there.
“They said with three seats we can cover what we need to cover, and we rearrange. But it’s mainly a saving to put that money into development because we are at the cost cap.”

How optimistic is Haas for the 2023 season?
“We started already with the upgrades,” Steiner confirmed. “When you have a plan in place, like this year, we are a lot better prepared. So we have got a plan in place and hopefully we get some upgrades soon. If they show results in the wind tunnel, for sure we’ll make them and bring them to the racetrack.
“I’m not for saying we just put the package on, if the package doesn’t bring anything, you spend money and do nothing. So we put timelines in and see what we can develop.
