F-1 team “Haas” suspends cooperation with pilot Mazepin and general sponsor due to Russian invasion / Article

“Like the rest of the F-1 community, we are shocked and disappointed by the invasion of Ukraine and look forward to a speedy and peaceful end to the conflict,” the team said in a statement.

Uralkali, the former general sponsor of Haas, is a Russian fertilizer company. One of its owners is Nikita Mazepin’s father Dmitry.

Already in the last practice races, “Haas” started with formulas that did not have the “Uralkali” logo and the colors of the Russian flag.

The first race of the F-1 season is scheduled for March 20 in Bahrain.
