Romain Grosjean will drive Haas' 2023 Formula 1 car at Mugello on Friday, marking his first run in F1 machinery since his horrific Bahrain Grand Prix accident in 2020.
A stalwart of the team in its early years, Grosjean joined Haas in 2016 and scored 104 points during his five seasons with the American outfit. Whilst set to depart at the end of 2020, the Franco-Swiss driver suffered a terrifying incident on the opening lap of the Bahrain race in which his car burst through the barrier and was set ablaze by a ruptured fuel line.
