Haas picks Rafael Camara over Ryo Hirakawa for Brazil

Haas team principal Ayao Komatsu says the decision to give Rafael Camara his Formula 1 debut at the Brazilian Grand Prix, rather than keep Ryo Hirakawa in the car, was based purely on professionalism.

Komatsu said the term was not meant as a criticism of Hirakawa. Instead, he said the team had looked closely at the qualities it wanted from its driver line-up for the race weekend.
