Haas will be the first to release the new car livery on February 4

Just when we thought Red Bull had already cut in on the 2022 car release, Haas had already beaten them.

The U.S. team will unveil the livery of the VF-22 race car on February 4, becoming the first team to showcase the colors and designs of 2022 ahead of the new season.

Team leader Gunther Steiner has hinted that they will be the first to release their new car, and the team's confirmation means F1 fans won't have to wait too long to see the new F1 car for the first time.

Haas has been at the bottom of the team for a long time in the 2021 season, as the team decided not to develop last year's car before the start of the season in order to bring together all their resources to bring the best car to the full adjustment of F1 rules.

After their rookie season, Mick Schumacher and Nikita Mazeping will continue as the team's drivers and hope to play alongside other teams on the field, rather than struggling at the end of the team as they did last year.

Both drivers know that 2021 must be a year of struggle after Haas decided to put their energy into their 2022 car, however, will their bets pay off?

Pre-season testing will take place in Barcelona from 23 to 25 February for three days, while the official pre-season testing will take place in Bahrain from 10 to 12 March and the opener for the 2022 season will take place at the Sakhir Circuit on 20 March.
