Haas has announced that it has extended its technical partnership with engine supplier Ferrari until the end of the 2028 F1 season.

Haas and Ferrari’s collaboration, which began in 2016 when the US outfit entered F1 and which has spanned 176 races, will see the pair transition to the sport’s new power unit regulations in 2026.

The upcoming power units, which will follow the current 1.6-litre, V6 turbocharged hybrid format, will feature increased electrification and a mandatory switch to fully sustainable fuels, marking a significant step towards a greener Formula 1.

“I’m thrilled to extend our relationship with Scuderia Ferrari until 2028,” commented Haas team principal Ayao Komatsu.

“As an organization 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 on-going development.

“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.

“I’m delighted we now have more seasons ahead and my thanks go to Fred Vasseur and many others at Scuderia Ferrari for continuing to show faith in our project.

“This announcement is just another example of the long-term ambition of MoneyGram Haas F1 Team – our investment and growth in the sport continues.”

For 2025, Haas has signed up Ferrari junior Ollie Bearman to fill the seat that will be vacated by Audi-Sauber bound Nico Hulkenberg at the end of the season.

However, the team has yet to complete its line-up for next year, with outgoing Alpine charger Esteban Ocon a favourite to join the team, which would imply the departure of Kevin Magnussen.

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
