Haas F1 Team Principal Gunther Steiner has stated that the new entrant to the sport who will make their Grand Prix debut in 2016 are not a Ferrari B team.

Steiner revealed that the Italian manufacturer are a good partner who are helping Haas to get into Formula One and that they have not spoken about the driver line up and Haas will not have Ferrari young driver and current Sauber F1 Team test driver Raffaele Marciello.

Steiner, who previously worked in Formula One with Red Bull Racing and Jaguar has said that Ferrari are just a technical and power unit supplier to the American team. The outfit’s preparations for next season are well and truly underway as they have secured a European HQ having purchased the former Manor Marussia F1 Team facility in Banbury, Oxfordshire.

The team also have their main facility next to their Stewart Haas NASCAR team in Charlotte, North Carolina.
