He didn’t score even a single point in the 2021 season as Haas were putting all their efforts into the 2022 car. However, things didn’t change for him this time around as he is reeling behind in the nineteenth place in the drivers’ standings and is yet to open his account.
Moreover, he has been a part of two major accidents where his car broke into two parts. The first accident came in the qualifying session of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and then he crashed near the swimming pool chicane in the Monaco Grand Prix last week.

On the other hand, Arthur races in Formula 3 for Prema Racing. He endured a difficult first season in F3 after finishing in tenth place with just 79 points to his name. Arthur also managed to win two races in the 2021 season.
This season, he has shown immense improvement and sees himself fifth overall with 43 points to his name after six races. Haas can go with any other driver but then their engine suppliers Ferrari won’t be giving them further discounts on their purchases.
