Haas have confirmed the first of their drivers for the 2021 Formula 1 season, with Nikita Mazepin signing a multi-year deal with the US team.
Mazepin, third in the Formula 2 standings, is expected to be joined by Mick Schumacher, the leader of the championship ahead of the final round in Bahrain this weekend, although Haas are waiting for their next announcement. According to AMuS, the confirmation of Mick’s move to Haas will be made official later this week.
Haas, who are ninth in the championship after another tough season, are going young with their driver line-up for next year having had Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen in their cars since 2017.
Mick, the son of F1 legend and seven-time champion Michael Schumacher, leads Callum Ilott by 14 points heading into the final two races at the Sakhir GP.
