In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate
I consulted a number of leading Hanafi scholars, including Mufti Rafi Usmani (Grand Mufti of Pakistan), about this. Their response was that it is permitted for Hanafis to pray witr behind Shafiis even if they pray it differently from the Hanafi three rakats--such as two-plus-one. This is based on a followable position within the Hanafi school that what matters is the imam's prayer regarding the validity of his prayer.
