Nikita Mazepin is on the news again! No, this time it’s not regarding his Formula 1 connection, but a new avatar that the Russian driver portrayed. The recent photo posted by the former Haas driver took everyone aback on social media, as they reacted to it, hilariously.

Mazepin recently shared a photo of him as a DJ at a nightclub in Moscow. The photo on Instagram has a caption in Russian. It brought a lot of interest among fans as soon as it was uploaded. As the photo surfaced on the internet, fans were quick to share their reactions to it on social media.

Mazepin has been out of the Formula 1 world after the Russia-Ukraine fallout earlier this year. Mazepin’s contract with Haas was canceled, as he was Russian and his father had close ties with the political figures in the country. From there on, there has not been a single development on Mazepin in Formula 1.
