  "account": "At the Italian Grand Prix, Haas F1 Team principal Ayao Komatsu has revealed that Oliver Bearman is the sole driver to be running Ferrari's upgraded Formula 1 power unit. This is Haas's second power train upgrade of the season, as mandated by the Additional Development and Upgrade Opportunities (ADUO) regulations. Ferrari is required to supply the updated parts to its customers, Haas and Cadillac, but is not obligated to provide enough for both cars; only one unit is made available to each American team. Komatsu had to decide between Bearman and teammate Esteban Ocon based on recent upgrades for the drivers, such as brake and power steering improvements. The latest upgrade, given to Bearman, is expected to significantly boost performance on Monza's long straights. Komatsu expressed frustration with the regulations, as Ferrari doesn't have to provide power units for both Haas cars, forcing him to choose a driver. Despite the challenging situation, Komatsu emphasized Haas's commitment to transparency and fairness in decision-making.",
