With how much Ferrari is involved with the car. I do not see this happening without major changes in how Haas operates.

Although with the Andretti situation I could also see them being pushed to make changes in how they operate.

It's about acting as an outside contractor for parts manufacturing. Unless Gene Haas wants to burn all bridges with Ferrari, nothing fundamental will change, I agree.

So it's a nothing story. pretty sure McLaren has a similar deal

Exactly. I'm 100% confident the reports about Toyota becoming engine supplier for McLaren had similar origins. Heck, there may have been talks and why wouldn't Toyota and their manufacturing customers not inquire about that. Andretti isn't going to use Toyota engines, just because they lease the wind tunnel and possibly Toyota staff even building the miniature models.
