HaaS Team Principal Ayao Komatsu says the team continues to grow so that the existing workforce is not pushed as a destruction point.
The recent addition to the team has increased the size of the HAA to about 330 employees, but it is considered the lowest in the grid due to the number of parts purchased by an external supplier. In contrast, Williams lists the total number of employees to more than 1,000, and Komatsu is proud of HaaS’s work ethics, but does not believe that it is operated at a stadium at a level of rivals.
Komatsu said, “I don’t think so because 330 people look at the numbers. “The amazing thing about this team is that we demand a lot of things. People are doing 1-2 or 3 things. TPC… As we have done for five years, it was so smooth and no problem. But it is because people go to extra miles and think in advance and think in advance.
“But I feel bad. I cannot rely on it. It is not sustainable. We cannot lead people to breakdown. We need to increase the resource function so that you can achieve these things without feeling like collapse. Whenever we try to improve, we are doing more, and we are doing more, and we are improving. It is difficult for everyone.
“Yes, people motivate them because everything (hiring and budget) is positive. You can see the team moving forward. That’s why they go to extra mile. But at the same time, we must provide sustainable environments and resources as the top management.
“There are still so many things we need to do. We completed the P7 -we talked about this year’s goal. Yes. The target is P6, but we are fighting for the same position that will fight for the P6 and P7 because we have not achieved the consistent results. ”
Komatsu means that this season’s budget cap limits this season, it means that the team owner, Gene Has, does not have to invest his money, and the team’s principal believes that his boss completely acknowledges what the team achieves.
“Gene was very happy at the end of last season. Honestly, I thought it was unfortunate that he could not get P6, but after finishing the race (in Abu Davi), I thanked the people and thanked you until I went out of the garage. I have already received a message from the genes to celebrate us.
“So it was very good to hear. So I called him and immediately said, “Congratulations, it’s amazing.” Honestly, you often do not get from genes at all!
“So I was really surprised and grateful for his opinion. But of course he is very competitive. Of course he wants more. Yes. He sat there and always forced an ambitious goal, but my job is actually trying to set a realistic goal. ”
