Haas avoided being “stupid or arrogant” with lowly F1 prediction

Summary

• Haas team principal Ayao Komatsu predicted his team would be at the bottom of the Formula 1 pecking order, which was not a deflection.
• Despite pre-season predictions, Haas has performed better than expected, currently sitting in seventh place in the constructors’ standings.
• Komatsu emphasized the challenges faced by the smaller team due to limited resources and late starts.
• The team’s success is attributed to making their own fortune rather than relying on mistakes made by competitors.
