Ambitious, the Haas team, however, composes with a particular scenario this year. In 2025, part of the American team changed, including their two pilots, which are now Esteban Ocon and Ollie Bearman. Capable of very good performances, like the China Grand Prix (ending 5th and 8th respectively), the two men, however, suffer from a lack of adaptability of their single -seater.
Current sixth, two points from Williams in the manufacturers’ classification, Haas seems above all to hold its rank thanks to daring strategies and tire management optimized by their pilots. In terms of rhythm, the VF-25 does not yet appear as competitive as it would have suggested the winter tests. However, the team is working actively, and Ollie Bearman seems to be contributing to his own efforts.
“Technically, it is above all the rookies that I have seen in the past. It is more prepared than I was when I arrived in F1. More than anyone of our generationwas enthusiastic Esteban Ocon. Honestly, I think he has a brilliant future in Formula 1. ”

« He is simply extremely competent. So you have to deal with that. It is not necessarily his fault. It is even incredible that he can manage it, like Fernando Alonso. »» He said then, not failing to warn his protégé on the dangerous aspects of this appetite.
Winner of two Formula 2 races in 2024, the young Briton had mainly distinguished himself by finishing seventh from his very first Formula 1 Grand Prix at the wheel of a Ferrari, in Djeddah. Replacing Carlos Sainz at the raised foot, he had already shown a great personality behind the wheel of the SF-24, and an already notable ambition.
13th with six points at this stage of the season, Ollie Bearman has only eight units behind Esteban Ocon. Despite a single -seater less in view than those of Kimi Antonelli or even Isack Hadjar to a certain extent, English is a credible prospect for a new major result.
