Now, had you opened with why did they promote an engineer to team principal, then ya, totally would agree that that isn't likely to result in a dramatic reversal of fortune. Nevertheless, would be happy to see Hulk or Mag get some wins.
in reading through the press, it seems Haas was able to field a team and keep it in F1 based on Steiner's innovative way of pulling resources together and meeting the F1 constructor role. Of course, this diversified structure may have led to some of the issues they faced, but from what I have read, at least, it was Steiner's team and Haas was the investor.

Be interesting to see if the new leaders change the approach or stay the course
