Haas Want To Be 'Best of The Rest'

After impressing the world at pre-season testing in Barcelona, Haas boss Guenther Steiner has said that he wants to end fourth this season in the constructors' championship, or 'best of the rest' after the 'big three' of Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull Racing.

"We want to be [fourth]," said Steiner when asked about it by RACER. "We should be able to be in it at least, and from there we might take it."

Haas, who are heading into their third season in the Formula One, have finished eighth in their first two years, but see no reason why they shouldn't be able to finish much higher this year round.

"Last year we finished eighth, but we were very close to getting sixth," Steiner explained. "There were eight points between us and sixth. That's not great by not a disaster either. You win some, you lose some."

The field should be a lot more even this year says the team boss, which is a sentiment shared by many others.
