Default Haas F-1 driver announcement

Anyone else disappointed or surprised that Alexander Rossi was not part of the announced driver line-up for Haas F-1 next season?

I did see today where Manor is supposed to get Mercedes engines, and chassis / aero assistance from Williams.

Not at all surprised...
Haas needs F1 specific experience
GP2 is a different beast...

Neither. He never figured majorly in their plans so no disappointment or surprise there.

They seem to have resources and I can only imagine they will get the best drivers they can.
Gutierrez is likely to be their second driver.

The Haas F1 Team appears to be set to use a yellow livery in Formula One next year.

In recent days, the new American team has tweeted photos of the team practicing pit stops at its factory with a black-liveried show car. But La Gazzetta dello Sport, an Italian F1 source, says the actual race livery next year will be yellow, like the Ferrari logo
