About Us

The first American Formula 1 team to compete in the sport since 1986, MoneyGram Haas F1 Team made an immediate impression with a memorable points-scoring debut at the 2016 Australian Grand Prix.

At MoneyGram Haas F1 Team, you’ll be involved in various areas of the team, gain broad visibility across the business, and see the impact of your contributions.
