The American team is the eighth team to complete its car reveal ahead of the pre-season testing in Bahrain next week and to post pictures on social media.
The new car design is a departure from what Haas traditionally did, adopting red and blue colors on the white base to reflect the colors of the Russian flag.
Uralkali is the world’s largest producer of potash fertilizers and is headed by Dmitry Mazepin, father of Haas driver Nikita Mazepin from 2021.
“I am very pleased to welcome Uralkali as the title partner of the Haas F1 team in Formula 1,” said team owner Gene Haas.
“We look forward to representing your brand throughout the season. It’s definitely a case of change, but I hope we’re back in the mix to score some points in these races.
“It’s been a tough couple of seasons, but we’re also looking at the bigger picture, especially 2022 and the implementation of the new regulations.”
Haas is heading into the 2021 season after a difficult season, in which the team only scored three points and finished ninth in the constructors’ championship.
It will start the upcoming campaign with an entirely new driver line-up after Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen left late last season.
Formula 2 champion Mick Schumacher enters Formula 1 with Haas and makes his Grand Prix debut 30 years after his father Michael began his famous career.
Ferrari Junior Schumacher will be supported in Haas by Mazepin, who finished fifth in the F2 classification with two race wins last year.
Haas has decided against issuing its two eligible development brands for its car in 2021 after most of the designs were transferred in accordance with the revised engineering regulations.
The move was taken to ensure that the team can focus all of its resources on developing for 2022 when the technical rulebook is revised.
“It’s going to be a pretty challenging season, we know that,” Steiner said in a recent interview with Motorsport.com.
“We are prepared for this. We will do as much as possible for this year in the medium term and in the short term we will compromise the medium to long-term profits. That is our plan at the moment.” ”
