Formula 1 team employing a strategy that nobody else utilizes

As a dedicated Formula 1 fan with years of experience following the sport, I have to admit that Haas’ decision to retain both Kevin Magnussen and Nico Hulkenberg for the 2024 season raised some eyebrows at first. However, under the guidance of new team principal Ayao Komatsu and the overall improvement of their car’s performance, Haas has proven to be a pleasant surprise this year.


Several questions arose regarding Haas’ decision to keep Kevin Magnussen and Nico Hulkenberg for the 2024 F1 season. However, their performance in the recent races suggests that this move has been successful thus far.

With the guidance of new team principal Ayao Komatsu and the enhanced capabilities of their car, Haas effectively seize each chance to earn points.

Haas’ drivers are unique among Formula One teams for frequently collaborating, and they are the only pair to consistently do so this season. This teamwork has been successful, with Haas currently ranked seventh in the constructor championship and having earned 27 points. They are on track for one of their best seasons since the team’s founding in 2016.

What makes Haas’ strategy work so well?

As a Haas F1 team fan, I can’t help but notice how much faster their new VF-24 car feels on the track compared to last year’s VF-23 model. This improvement enables our skilled drivers to coordinate and work together seamlessly, making for an exciting racing experience.

Hulkenberg outperforms his teammate, and Magnussen recognizes this. Magnussen’s acceptance of Hulkenberg’s superior speed is crucial for the team’s strong results so far. In certain races, Magnussen has held back pursuing drivers to enable Hulkenberg to close the gap after changing tires.

As a gamer, I’d put it this way: At the Austrian Grand Prix, my Haas duo of Hulkenberg and Magnussen shone brightly. We climbed the grid together, like a well-coordinated team, and our strategy paid off big time for us.

Through good fortune following the last-minute crash between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris, the Haas drivers managed to place among the top eight finishers, accumulating a total of 12 points for their team – an unexpected achievement during this race weekend.

After the race, Magnussen was quite happy with the performance of the team, right from the get-go.

It has been a smooth weekend, good qualifyings with no traffic – well managed there. Two good pit stops in the race, strategy spot-on, so couldn’t have asked for more.

With Haas trailing RB by four points for sixth place in the constructor standings, they’re undoubtedly determined to build on their recent progress. Though they may not be getting much attention yet, they’re making positive strides and could find themselves in the thick of a competitive midfield fight during the next season.
