Haas Updates Car for Monza Amid Bearman Skepticism

Haas has introduced upgrades for the upcoming Monza Grand Prix as Oliver Bearman expresses skepticism about the VF-26's performance.

After a strong start to the 2026 Formula 1 season, Haas admits it has been overtaken and out-developed by its rivals. The team has traditionally begun seasons strongly, continuing this pattern by picking up points in the first three races, but recent performance has fallen short of expectations. xsportfeed.quest

Team boss Ayao Komatsu and driver Oliver Bearman both remain hopeful that the team can catch back up with the pack "soon." Bearman, in particular, has been vocal about his concerns regarding the VF-26's capabilities, prompting the development of these latest updates ahead of the Italian Grand Prix at Monza.
