Haas might delay line-up decision until November

Haas could delay a final decision on its 2017 driver line-up until the end of the current season, according to team owner Gene Haas.

F1's newest team is yet to confirm who will partner Romain Grosjean next year, with uncertainty swirling around Esteban Gutierrez's future. The Mexican driver is confident he will remain on the grid next season but recently admitted the situation had become "complicated", without elaborating further.

Though a decision was originally slated for September, Haas is wait to continue until the season finale in November.

"I don't think we've made any hard decisions," Haas told reporters ahead of his team's home grand prix.
