Haas boss Guenther Steiner has confirmed his team have no spare chassis for this weekend’s Australian Grand Prix, following Mick Schumacher’ s horror crash in Saudi Arabia. Schumacher’s car was left in ruins, following the shocking accident around the Jeddah track in qualifying.
The driver was air-lifted to hospital, whilst the wreckage of his car was removed from the track. Fortunately Schumacher was later given the all-clear and was released from hospital, however the same couldn’t be said for his car.
As a result Steiner estimated that the cost of the repair would set the team back £760,000 ($1 million), due to the sheer damage of the car. And, despite the full fix the American-based team are still suffering the consequences of the Saudi crash down under this week.
