And now you can't joke anymore. We officially enter the heart of the new season of Formula 1. The new year was kicked off by Haas which he revealed on the afternoon of Friday 2 February the first car of the 2024 season: the VF-24. What prevails, as can be seen from the images, is the colour the black with small adjustments White. The new VF-24 will be the single-seater that will feature Nico Hulkenberg and Kevin Magnussen. Both drivers, as well as the team, are called to redemption following a season - the previous one - not entirely brilliant. Although the VF-23 was a fast car in qualifying, with several excellent placings achieved by Hulkenberg, problems continued to arise in the race. A completely absent grip and many top tens missed.
Ahead of a new beginning: here is the 2024 Haas season car
The team's hope for this new season is that of having to redeem themselves from last place in 2023. It is no coincidence that Haas opted for this for the farewell of Guenther Steiner. The South Tyrolean, in fact, was fired by Gene Haas and, after almost 10 years of activity, left the American team. He took over in his place Komatsu who has already explained what the team's plan will be for the possible recovery. Although of shorter duration, Simone Resta's adventure at Haas also came to an end in view of 2024 (who is free on the market and a possible move to some other Formula 1 team is not ruled out).
Hulkenberg and Magnussen: what to do at Fanta F1?
After a difficult 2023, yes Magnussen and Hulkenberg are called to redemption. The first tests will be fundamental to understand the type of car that the two drivers will have at their disposal. Betting on them at Fanta F1 may not be entirely the best solution. To understand whether to invest something or not, it would be best to wait for the first two races - scheduled in Bahrain and Jeddah - and then decide whether or not to have them on the team given their fantasy average last year (+0.95 for Magnussen and +0.75 for Hulkenberg) was not positive at all.
