Ollie Bearman afferma che la Haas è in difficoltà con gli aggiornamenti in Canada

Ollie Bearman si è qualificato 16° per il Gran Premio del Canada dopo che la Haas ha faticato ad adattare le nuove pance e il fondo al circuito irregolare di Montreal. Gli aggiornamenti miravano ad aumentare il carico aerodinamico, ma hanno reso la VF-26 difficile da guidare. Bearman ha iniziato la sprint dalla pit lane a seguito di alcune modifiche all'assetto.

Bearman ha descritto il fine settimana come una costante ricerca di equilibrio. Ha affermato che il team ha inseguito i propri problemi e ha definito le qualifiche come la prima sessione in cui è riuscito a spingere l'auto al limite senza problemi significativi, come il bloccaggio dell'anteriore. Il pilota britannico ha osservato che il nuovo pacchetto offriva un potenziale in termini di prestazioni, ma ha creato caratteristiche complesse sulle asperità e sui cordoli del circuito.
