Maze-spin Oligarch child cannot race in the UK - He is done unless Haas dont see the reality of all this

Russian-licenced drivers banned from British motorsport

Russian-licenced drivers and teams are to be banned from competing in motorsport events in the UK, it was announced on Wednesday.


The Motorsport UK decision potentially has huge implications for drivers competing at international and national level.

It means that Russian driver Nikita Mazepin, who races for Haas in F1, would not be able to compete in this year’s British Grand Prix if the team decided to keep him on. A decision on his future at the American-owned team is expected to be made imminently.

The only way such drivers could continue would be to race under a different nationality’s licence, as the Motorsport UK decision is based on its refusal to recognise licences issued by the Russian Automobile Federation (RAF) and the Belarus Automobile Federation (BAF).
