Formula 1 team Haas refused to give Russian driver Nikita Mazepin his car

The American Formula 1 team Haas refused to give the Russian driver Nikita Mazepin his car. It is reported by Motorsport.

It is noted that we are talking about the car in which the Russian spoke in 2021. The team is pushing for over $8 million in compensation. “Until the amount is paid, there is no obligation on Haas’ side to deliver the car,” Haas said in a statement.

Earlier, the owner of the team Gene Haas revealed the reason why the team decided to get rid of the Russian. According to the functionary, Haas faced criticism for cooperating with a pilot from Russia.

On March 5, Haas ceased cooperation with Mazepin. The team also announced the termination of the agreement with the Russian company Uralkali, which sponsored it. The Russian rider called Haas’ decision painful and unfair.
