Took them long enough

Now we just need a replacement. Also anyone who put him on your team (why you would I don’t know) your going to have to think of a replacement for that as well

With his conduct off track before last season he never should have had a drive in the first place. It angers me that it’s only now his seat was questioned.

The amount of comments under rhe F1 Instagram post saying it’s wrong just because he’s Russian seem to be missing the 2 key points of
1. The sponsorship is gone therefore the money paying for his seat is also gone.
2. The optics of how close his dad is to Putin is terrible. Meeting him the day of the invasion.
There was only one way this was ending.

I do kind of feel bad for him under the circumstances but at the same time I need to remind myself that he didn't get a point last season and he was there because of his father's sponsorship

Don't feel bad for him, he sexually assaulted another woman, attacked other drivers when he was still a teenager and his father is an oligarch with very close ties to Putin.

Lots of people were questioning his seat last season- there was a lot of outrage and fury at him getting it (most of my Twitter feed was angry at the seat)

But yeah, I agree some people are missing point of why he has actually lost his seat. It's not solely because he's Russian (I on principal disagree with someone losing their seat over their nationality which they don't choose) but it is because he is ultimately paying for his seat, and if they can no longer have the sponsor then he no longer has a seat
Tbh I also don't think his dad's allegiances should play a role either- unless Mazepin is actively there supporting his dad and his friends, that's something else you don't choose in life

I am hoping that some of the people under the F1 post are more being sarcastic at the loss of Mazepin (most people liked taking the piss out of how bad his driving was and so from a comedic point of view may be annoyed)

Ultimately would have been better if he had lost his seat cause of how crap of a person he was proven to be last year before he joined Haas

I hope next week in Bahrain they ban the question "do you think Nikita deserved it" because that's the only thing they will talk about🙄🙄
PR teams working overtime now

As much as I hope they don’t ask all the drivers, I do wanna know their non-PR reactions
