I could see Gene Haas pulling out of F1.

At some point, maybe. But not in the next year. If he were going to sell, I think he would have done it by now.

He was essentially singlehandedly bankrolling the whole team until Moneygram showed up. If he didn't sell when he was the sole sponsor, why would he now that he's just started sharing the cost? Apparently he even passed up an Andretti offer at the time.

I guess we'll see how the team does without Steiner.
