    You mean you're worried Haas will buy naming rights to Ferrari?

    just joking!

    Haas Formula won't race until 2016, so what's the issue if they sponsor Ferrari for now thru 2015? Ferrari gets more money, Haas gets more advertising, that's about it.

    I'm not crazy about Haas in the first place and I don't like the idea of Ferrari and him getting chummy.

    More teams need to use Ferrari power units.

    Is that to slow down the field as slow as Ferrari?

    The Scuderia will be resurgent. Perhaps you should change your user name.

    Probably Haas will fail miserably, but meanwhile Ferrari will get money for the engines and for the stickers. I don´t see the problem.

    I like the idea of an Italo-American technical partnership to go head to head against the usual british ones. Ferrari has already a lot of American suppliers for its car so seems only natural to me.

    I think it is a good move for both Ferrari and Haas.

    1. Haas gets good exposure to F1.
    2. Haas needs a technical partner.
    3. Ferrari has had issues with their wind tunnel and this has contributed to their aero problems. Haas has one of the best in the world.

    If we do see customer teams this may put Haas at the head of the queue.

    Great minds & all that! I was just thinking the exact same. ;)

    I don't think we will, but it's gotta help his cause to be an engine customer if nothing else.

    Cheers,

    I see where you're coming from but doubt he would be motivated enough for that

    Bianchi maybe

    Jules Bianchi (having come up through the Ferrari program) is an excellent choice- well done. I have to agree, Kimi lost his motivation as soon as he got paid again.
