Haas VF-20
Haas's Ferrari-powered 2020 challenger, a car that shared much of its thinking with Ferrari's own SF90.
About the Haas VF-20
Haas designed the VF-20 under chief designer Rob Taylor and powered it with Ferrari's 2020 power unit, paired with a 2019-specification Ferrari eight-speed gearbox, and its design had several similarities to the Ferrari SF90. Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen, in their fourth season together, made a rough start as both retired with brake failures. The car struggled with consistency and grip, and at the Spanish Grand Prix it was two seconds slower in the race than in first practice two days earlier. Together with a lack of power from the customer Ferrari engine, this left Haas at the back of the grid alongside Alfa Romeo and Williams.
