Don't really care who drives for Hass, but it's ridiculous to ban him just because he was born in Russia.
Should the NHL ban all Russian players?
I agree with banning national teams but not individuals.
Not saying it will happen, but I imagine that there are political pressure's to remove him
Who will replace Russian Formula One driver Nikita Mazepin?
The Haas F1 team said reserve driver Pietro Fittipaldi would replace Nikita Mazepin if the Russian driver needs to be dropped from the team in the fallout from the invasion of Ukraine.

Be a shame if it happened.
It's blowing smoke season.
Don't follow F1 if Ferrari are not competitive, the Bahrain GP isn't for another month. I'll remain skeptical until I see results. It's not just Ferrari anymore, it's Scuderia Ferrari.

WTF FIA!
They should read their Russian history. The Mazepins where Cossack (Ukrainian) leaders who fought against the Tatars and Ottoman Turks.
The Ukrainian pov turned against alliance with Russia when Stalin inflicted the Holodomor against them.
Franz Liszt went with the Italian version of their name.

Cleared to crash or at the very least, continue to live up to his nickname "Massivespin."
I'm not going to lie that I wish he wasn't on the grid. His driving is simply atrocious compared to the rest of the field. I kinda miss Maldonado more. lol
His spot might be in jeopardy if Uralkali pulls funding because of the lack of representation or if the SWIFT measures make it difficult for them to pay. I don’t see that happening but it’s a possibility. I think Papa Mazepin will try to keep his son in that seat as long as possible.
Oh I miss the days of making fun of Crashtor, lol.
