Haas boss Guenther Steiner says the team is in no rush to rethink its partnership with Ferrari and ease towards a more independent approach to Formula One.Haas joined the grid this year with an extensive engine and technical partnership with Ferrari, which caused controversy at the tail-end of last year and led to the FIA closing a loophole in the regulations. Despite an inconsistent year the team has exceeded pre-season expectations, with 29 points alongside its name heading to the season finale in Abu Dhabi.The team, which also has a partnership with Italian chassis manufacturers Dallara, splits work between bases in Banbury, U.K and Kannapolis, North Carolina in its native U.S.A. Steiner believes the teams current business model is the reason for Haas having such a successful rookie season and sees no reason for it to end.When asked if the team would re-think the Ferrari relationship in 2017 and beyond, Steiner replied: No, we have a long-standing contract in place with Ferrari that we can continue the business model we are doing. We are going forward like this for the next few years and then we see, we rethink. But at the moment we are very happy with Ferrari, what they did for us over the year to get to the point where we are now.Hopefully we finish eighth if [Renault] doesnt pull out something very special, and we hope we move up next year. But in the moment, for sure you always develop your team and you keep on getting better and more people in and that will happen - but in general it stays like we are now.Haas will finish eighth in the championship barring an unlikely 21-point swing in Renaults favour at Yas Marina. In Brazil the team finally confirmed its driver line-up for 2017, signing Kevin Magnussen to partner Romain Grosjean, the man responsible for all 29 of its points so far this year.Lorenzen Wright Grizzlies Jersey .
