Will Mazepin be excluded?
Robem64:
Given the stance of many, many other sports and their exclusion of Russian athletes surely the FIA will have to take a similar decision in relation to Mazepin?

No matter what the FIA decide, Niki may be gone. If Daddy's checks go away, so will he.

Maybe get a American driver for a American team? Herta comes to
mind. And how much will the sanctions against Russia hurt his sponsor
John S:
Think Cossie is right and Haas will either dump or lose its sponsorship meaning Mazepin will lose his drive. I'm sure the FIA will prefer that to happen rather than having make a decision themselves. :(
Dare, I think Steiner at Haas has already confirmed that Pietro Fittipaldi is the front running choice for replacing Nikita, if necessary.
lkjohnson1950:
You're right about Fittipaldi being next up John. Since most websites seem to agree that Haas has not made any gains under the new rules, I'm not sure I would like Herta to go there.
