Ocon rose from 15th to 12th on lap one but finished 14th, while Bearman retired after 24 of 56 laps. Haas remained seventh on 30 points.

At the 2026 United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of The Americas, Esteban Ocon moved from 15th to 12th on the opening lap but finished 14th. Oliver Bearman retired after 24 of the 56 laps with damage to his Haas.

After pitting for hard tyres on lap 21, Ocon was passed by both Audi drivers; Arvid Lindblad of Racing Bulls also got the better of him on fresher softs. Ocon said front-locking and high-speed understeer had returned.

Bearman started 13th and was up to 11th on the opening lap. He reached the top ten by passing Pierre Gasly at Turn 13 on lap two, but contact with Gasly damaged his car. Bearman stopped for hard tyres on lap 13 and again on lap 22 for mediums, serving a 10-second penalty at the second stop.

After the race, Haas remained seventh in the constructors' standings with 30 points.
