Haas, new team principal Ayao Komatsu introduces himself
Here are the first words to the media from Haas’ new team principal, Japanese Ayao Koatsu, who took over from Guenther Steiner of Alto Adige, who was fired by the U.S. team. The quotes are reported by formulapassion.co.uk.
“Of course, I am not trying to be Steiner! È a very different person. We got along, honestly, very, very well. We respect each other, we respect our positions and our roles during work and also outside work. We often went to dinner during race weekends, again not to talk about work, but because we got along very well. But I am not here to replace Steiner as a character“.
“Günther è very different, has very different strengths and weaknesses from mine. I am not trying to be somebody else and Gene knows that; if Gene had wanted a replacement for Steiner, he would have appointed somebody else. So I understand that Gene wants something different and I will tryò to be the best version of myself rather than trying to be somebody else“.
“I am really overwhelmed by the positive support I è been given. Everybody has been very enthusiastic and supportive, so I’m really happy about what we can improve with the people we have here.I know there are a lot of talented, high-quality kids here, I really wanted to provide them with the necessary environment and context for them to be able to do their best. So I am really excited“.
Born in Tokyo, Komatsu will be 48 years old next Jan. 28. A motor engineering graduate from Britain, he began working in F1 at BAR as a tire engineer. In 2006 he moved to Renault in the test team, and later became track engineer to Nelsinho Piquet, Vitaly Petrov and Romain Grosjean, whom he followed in 2016 to the newly formed Haas team, where he became director of track engineers, a role he also held at Lotus, the former Renault team, the year before. Finally, a week ago, the appointment as Haas team principal.

All-U.S. semifinal at US Open
Another big man exits the tournament. After the various Alcaraz and Djokovic, Zverev è is also no longer in the running at the US Open. The German è was beaten by Fritz in four sets (7-6 (2) 3-6 6-4 7-6), at the end of a match that è lasted almost three and a half hours. A defeat that leaves a lot of bitterness in Zverev’s mouth. The German was aiming to reach at least the final.
A feat for the American who, dragged by the home crowd, won the first semifinal of a Slam event. After winning the first set on tie-break, Fritz suffered the return of Zverev, who took home the second partial with a peremptory 6-3. The momentum seemed to be in the German’s hands but Fritz escaped on 3-0. Zverev recovers but gives up at the più beautiful. Spectacular fourth set. Zverev tries everything but, once again, the tie-break costs him dearly. He loses it 7-3 and says goodbye to the tournament.
Dreams big for Fritz who, in the semifinals, will face the other American Tiafoe who, in the quarterfinals, wins the match with Dimitrov, forced to retire in the fourth set due to a physical problem: 6-3, 6-7, 6-3, 4-1 the partials in favor of Tiafoe.
The United States dreams, after 21 years (Roddick, 2003), of an American winning the U.S. Open. In the meantime, it enjoys Sinner who, thanks to Zverev è’s knockout; increasingly serene in his comfortable position as world No. 1.
