Formula One: Maserati could be the next sponsor for Haas F1

Maserati could be re-entering Formula One as the sponsor for Haas F1 Team. Reports reveal that talks are going on between Gene Haas, owner and FCA president, Sergio Marchionne over the same.

The American team is self-funded since the last two years in F1. In their debut 2016 season, drivers Romain Grosjean and Esteban Gutierrez could get 29 points in total and the team was 8th in the constructor's standings. In 2017, Kevin Magnussen replaced Gutierrez. The team stood 8th on the constructor's leaderboard with 47 points in total.

Recently, Alfa Romeo returned to F1 as title sponsor of the Sauber F1 Team. Now, another FCA brand is entering into F1. Both the companies will be working with teams powered by Ferrari engines. Maserati had earlier participated in Formula One during 1940-1960 and Juan Manuel Fangio won the 1957 world driver's championship in a Maserati 250F.
