2022 Haas F1 Team

shouldn't the thread be renamed?

Pietro Fittipaldi with Banco Do Brazil sponsorship is my prediction.

Wonder if they will go with a white car featuring the corporate banco do brazil colours as a blue and yellow swoosh (conviniently the same colours as ukraine)

Yep ... https://www.haasf1team.com/partners/uralkali-0 "access denied" ... they've dropped the name everywhere.

Uralchem is not sanctioned and neither is Dimitry Mazepin. He was sanctioned in 2014 after the invasion of Crimea but right now since several other belarussian potash producers are being sanctioned Uralkali stands to profit.

[Freelander]

Also: nothing has been said about Uralkali's sponsorship. Only their logo was removed. It doesn't mean they are sanctioned or no longer sponsors.

Sounds like a strict order from the Whitehouse. Haas seemed to move well before Liberty and FIA did...?

Social pressure more likely.

...regardless, I do not believe the company line from Steiner that the loss Mazepin/Uralkali "will not be a setback for the competition side of the team" (...unless Gene learned to get the cash up front from the Rich Energy fiasco).

I fear this team is cursed, I reckon Michael A steers way clear.

A HAAS-Andretti tie up seems legit to me.

I doubt the Whitehouse has a clue there's an American F1 team, let alone one sponsored by a Russian company
perhaps Hass felt it best for his business, and the other team sponsors to remove the Uralkali logo's

[Scorpaguy]

A HAAS-Andretti tie up seems legit to me.

...certainly a proven and most recently utilized pathway to the "club". However, I wonder if He is more willing to wait and execute his current Renault partnership than navigate such with Big Red...or a "divorce therefrom?

Still, Gros's conflagration and subsequent resurgence/KMag is doing great since the separation/Storey's debacle...and now an ostracized sponsor. I think someone may be sticking pins in a Gene Haas doll.

Personally, I hope they survive/prosper and Andretti makes it 11...as that seems to cheese Toto

[Sevach]

Mick put out this statement.
Suggests to me that the break up is real and irrevocable and not just "hey it wouldn't look good for us to have your colors right now, but other than that we carry on".

Their poor performance at Barcelona doesn't bode well in attracting replacement partner(s).

Considering how every other team runs out of space to put logos of crypto-funds, "blockchain tech" etc. on their car, some sponsorship shouldn't be that hard to find?

I would be really wary of any crypto sponsorship if I was a team that got swindled by a title sponsor not long ago.

Mazepin can also pay Haas in physical assets like gold. He can literally ship gold to a Swiss bank then Haas take payment from there (or some shizzle like that).

Here is a shipment of oil, send the payment to... and they will put your name on the car
Neutral to neutral.

I guess you can still ship Oil to China but they bought so much when the prices were low ...
