The Haas F1 Team is in a rut, and the stink is starting to get bad. The team scored no points in Canada, a single point at Monaco by Grosjean.
The French Grand Prix did not fail to meet expectations. Romain Grosjean made an error on his final hot lap of Q1 and finished qualifying in 17th position, out of 20 drivers. Kevin Magnussen passed into the second qualifying round, but finished at the back of that group, 15th. Lewis Hamilton took pole and Valttari Bottas was 2nd; another Mercedes front row lock out. Charles Leclerc started 3rd in his Ferrari and Max Verstappen 4th in his Redbull. Sebastian Vettel was down in 7th position.
By the end of the first lap of the race Romain Grosjean had lost two positions and was down to P18, Magnussen was +1 and up to the 14th spot, dropped to last on lap 17 when he pitted. He would never recover. Grosjean pitted on the 33rd lap and rejoined the field one spot ahead of his teammate . The Haas cars were P17 and P18, only ahead of the two Willaims of George Russel and Robert Kubica.
Romain Grosjean dropped out of the race on lap 48 of the 53 race distance. Magnussen will finish in 14th.
Formula 1 is becoming painful to watch.
