So Haas have seemingly shown that buying Ferrari bits is an effective way of getting into F1. Question is, does that mean others could follow the same route, and will any existing teams follow that path in order to compete. Would Williams or Force India buy Merc parts? Would Merc sell them? I know both Williams and Force India have always been outspoken against the idea, but when does reality bite and they have to change their view in order to be competitive? Surely Sauber would have been better off following that route, and one would imagine that they might next year. Red Bull and McLaren probably wouldn’t buy Renault bits and Torro Rosso are on their own. Will be interesting to see how it all pans out. Have F1 created a monster?
