Alfa Romeo have already announced their deal with Sauber comes to an end in 2023, paving way for Audi’s full takeover of the team in the subsequent years.
However, the Alfa Romeo name could be sticking around beyond next year, according to reputable journalist Dieter Rencken.
According to his report, Alfa Romeo want to remain in F1, with Haas potentially the perfect fit for the Italian brand.
Recently, Haas acquired a new title sponsor in the form of Moneygram, reportedly worth $20 million per year.
With Moneygram’s color scheme matching Alfa Romeo’s – red, white and black colors – there’s certainly some logic to it.
Haas’ new sponsorship deal is an important one for the American outfit, allowing them to push towards the F1 cost cap for the first time.
They are on course for their best finish in the constructors’ championship for a number of years, sitting in eighth overall with two rounds remaining.
