Haas F1 2023 drivers

Guenther Steiner has explained that Haas is not ready to announce its 2023 driver lineup, and that there will be no confirmation this weekend. 

The Haas team principal has previously suggested that a decision on Kevin Magnussen's teammate was closer to being reached, but it seems that negotiations continue to take place. 

According to Chris Medland, however, Guenther Steiner has denied claims that any contracts will be confirmed this weekend. 

With just two rounds left in the 2022 season and no announcement planned for the Brazilian GP weekend, the American squad could make its final decision after the finale in Abu Dhabi. 

Mick Schumacher has spent almost two years with Haas, so it seems unlikely that the team will learn anything new about the 23-year-old in the final rounds of the season.

Williams have retained Alex Albon on a multi-year deal, but he will have a new teammate after the team confirmed Nicholas Latifi's departure at the end of the season. Logan Sargeant is another rookie on the grid, representing Williams, with the extra pressure on being a US-born driver.
