Haas driver split is speculation: Nikita Mazepin

The two Haas rookies, Nikita Mazepin and Mick Schumacher, don’t have a healthy relationship as the two drivers were involved in several near-miss incidents this season.

And as quoted by GrandPX.news, when asked about the speculation regarding Haas may separate him from his teammate, Nikita Mazepin replied, “You found the right word – speculation.

“In almost all cases, people who say such things have nothing to do with the team. As much as Mick and I would like to beat each other, we do not forget that we are two drivers who work for one team so that we can both have good results.

“We cannot afford any friction like that, and we have a productive, good relationship in order to help the team to achieve the results that I believe it deserves.”
