The MoneyGram Haas F1 Team finished with Esteban Ocon in 16th place and Oliver Bearman in 17th place at the 2025 Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix, held on Sunday at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
Ocon took the start from 16th place on Pirelli P Zero Red soft tyres and maintained his position through the opening lap before pitting on lap 21 for Yellow, medium tyres. Ocon made his second pit stop on lap 44, again taking on mediums, before staying out when the safety car was deployed due to Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli coming to a stop. Ocon cycled through to the 11th position but, on used tyres, was unable to hold back rivals on fresher and softer rubber and greeted the checkered flag in the 16th position.
Bearman started from the 14th position, also on soft tyres, and came in on lap eight for medium tyres, working his way through to battle for the top 10 positions. Bearman pitted again on lap 36 for mediums before boxing on lap 55 under the safety car for softs. Bearman again contended for the top 10 positions but was issued a 10-second time penalty for leaving the track and gaining an advantage during an earlier battle with Liam Lawson. The application of the sanction post-race relegated Bearman to the 17th position.
MoneyGram Haas F1 Team holds the seventh position in the Constructors’ Championship, on 26 points.

We stayed out on used tyres under the safety car, as we would have been at the back of the grid, and it wasn’t worth it. It’s the end of the triple-header, and there are some positives and some difficulties, but thanks to the team for the support they’ve given over these three weeks. I think it’s good that we’re now entering a week where we can analyse things and hopefully come back stronger. The positive was Monaco, and now we’re heading to Canada, another street circuit, so we’re looking to get back to where we belong there.

It wasn’t a perfect day today; the car didn’t quite have the pace, but I also don’t think we put it together very well operationally. It’s not just today; what happened today stems from Friday as well, so we need to investigate how we can refine our operations, maximise the potential of our cars and drivers, and work more effectively together. We’ll reflect on this one and try to do better in Montreal.
