To Gene, Ayao and everyone at Haas, thank you for believing in me and for trusting me to represent your team,” he continued. “I’ve really enjoyed working with everyone since the first time we met in Mexico and I can’t wait to enjoy this moment with them and hopefully many more in the future.” “[To] everyone at the Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy, quite simply, I wouldn’t be here without you.
Thank you for preparing me since F4 for this incredible opportunity and know I will give it everything I have.” Earlier this year, Oliver drove in his first ever Formula 1 race at the 2024 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix while Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz was out sick.
