Overview

  • Grosjean will drive a Haas VF-23 at Mugello on Friday, September 26, 2025, in a single-day, one-off test.
  • The run is part of Haas’s Testing of Previous Cars program, which permits cars at least two seasons old, hence the 2023 chassis.
  • Haas team director Ayao Komatsu, Grosjean’s former race engineer, will be on hand with several of the driver’s ex-teammates.
  • He will use the helmet designed by his children for what was meant to be his 2020 Abu Dhabi farewell.
  • The appearance is framed as a symbolic reunion rather than a competitive return, following his survival of the 2020 Bahrain crash that left burns to his hands.
