Gene Haas says his team will retain its current driver line-up of Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen for the 2018 Formula 1 season.
Grosjean joined Haas for its maiden campaign last year and scored all of its 29 points as the squad claimed eighth in the standings.
Magnussen, meanwhile, replaced Esteban Gutiérrez, following previous spells at McLaren and Renault.
Haas holds seventh position in the standings and the 64-year-old says that Grosjean and Magnussen will remain as its driver pairing into 2018.
“We will run with the same drivers that we have this year again next year, that is a given,” he told the official F1 website.
“And given the other continuity aspects, we should be better racers next season.
“[Magnussen] can score points and that was the key for bringing him on board.
“Kevin can grab points and Romain can too. We now have 29 points. Last year around this time we also had 29 points, but did not score for the rest of the season.
“So now if we can score another 29 points by Abu Dhabi, that would be a great position.”
