Haas will continue to use power units and other components supplied by Ferrari until at least 2028 after extending a deal which has been in place since it entered Formula 1.
The new deal extends the partnership into 2026, when F1 will introduce new technical regulations including the first change to the power unit rules since 2014.
Team principal Ayao Komatsu said the deal provides important continuity for the team. “As an organisation we’ve only ever raced with Ferrari power units and to have that continued stability moving into the next set of power unit regulations is a key part of our ongoing development,” he said.
“The relationship with Scuderia Ferrari has always been a special one to us – they were instrumental in the genesis of the program back in the early days and have continued to be a valuable technical partner to us throughout the past nine seasons.”
Haas entered F1 in 2016 and has used power units, gearboxes and other parts including suspension components supplied by Ferrari since then, and also uses the Italian team’s wind tunnel for development. It will become Ferrari’s sole customer team in 2026 when Sauber becomes Audi’s works F1 team.
The close relationship between the two teams prompted complaints from rivals in the year immediately after Haas’s arrival in F1, who described Gene Haas’ operation as a ‘Ferrari B team’. F1 later scaled back the quantity of parts teams were allowed to obtain from other competitors.
Haas achieved its best constructors championship finish with fifth place in 2018. The team fell to last in the standings in 2021 and again last year, but made a stronger start to this season and now lies seventh on 27 points.
Ferrari Driver Academy member Oliver Bearman will join Haas next year in a separate deal.
