The new Haas F1 Team has released a short video showing off preparations on its race trucks ahead of its debut season.

Haas will make its on-track debut at the first pre-season test at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, with the team having just eight days to prepare for the opening race of the season in Melbourne. Back at the team's UK base in Banbury, Haas has been preparing its race trucks ahead of the start of testing, featuring a grey and red livery:

The team has yet to make any announcement regarding its car livery with the opening race of the season still over two months away. F1i understands a decision has not yet been taken on the car's colour despite reports in December suggesting the team had opted for yellow.

Haas announced at the end of last week that its first car - which comprises a Ferrari power unit and a chassis built by Dallara - has passed the mandatory FIA crash tests, clearing the way for it to start testing.
