The decision of the International Sports Arbitration (CAS) on doping and its coverage at the state level to suspend the participation of Russian athletes in international power competitions and F-1 races.
This means that both Mazepin and other cyclists in the country will not be able to fight under the Russian flag and other national symbols in all International Automobile Federation (FIA) competitions for the next two years.
They will have to be called neutral athletes and will be able to use the Russian colors as symbols, but not the words “Russia”, “Russia” or “Russian Automobile Federation”.
The FIA also hosts the Russian anthem at events organized by the FIA, including during the F-1 stage in Sochi.
These bans, in addition to Formula 1, are also valid in racing series such as Formula E, WEC, WRC, WRX and karting championships.
We remind you that the son of Russian billionaire Dmitry Mazepin warmed up his legs in Formula 2 last year, where he finished fifth in the general classification.
The athlete’s father, D. Mazepin, is a billionaire who runs the fertilizer and chemical company Uralchem Integrated. Its assets are valued at more than 7 billion. AMERICAN DOLLAR.
There is no doubt that Mazepin’s contract with Haas also includes his father’s support of the team.
Nikita’s teammate Haas will be fellow German Formula 2 champion Mick Schumacher, the son of the legendary Michael Schumacher.
Nikita Mazepin will not be able to race under the Russian flag in F1 until 2023 as the AMA ban is confirmed to extend to the FIA world championships 🇷🇺
