Haas confirms Mazepin

[S griffin]

Nice to have Schumi Jr in the series. He’s probed in F2 this year he’s more than capable. Just hope he doesn’t revert to dirty tactics like his father did

[bathurst77]

If they can bring in one driver with big $$$ they can afford then to bring in another purely on talent (And fewer $$)
But if thy dont take the big bucks bloke they wouldnt be able to afford a rising star and have to take two medium sized cash drivers, neither of which is a "new lewis".

They can only afford the talent if the other bloke is bringing the loot

[peebee2]

They’ve signed two drivers with big $$$.

But both drivers should be ok.

I just did a bit of background reading on some of Mazepin's antics both on and off track. Can't say I'm a fan.

Last weekend Junior showed he's willing to rough rivals up too!

"Top 20 drivers in the world".....

Sure thing!

There might be a chance that Nikita won't qualify for a superlicence if he doesn't get a good enough result this weekend, but Steiner is sticking with his decision for now

I think he only needs to finish 7th in the F2 championship to get to 40 SL points.
AFAIK he has he 33 at the moment and will drop only 1.

He drops to 8th if he doesn't score and Zhou scores at least 37 points, Delétraz 29, Lundgaard 13, Tsunoda 6 and Schwartzman 4.

That only happens if Mazepin really has a horrible weekend *and* Zhou and Delétraz an almost perfect one.

He should be ok.... he is currently third in the championship, needing to finish only 7th to score enough points. Even if he has a double DNF it would need those out of the top 7 to have a great weekend to upset his plans.

Here's hoping.
