The decision on the racing team Haas it is supposed to fall because, as reported by the Danish newspaper Extra Blade, citing several sources, will be the U.S. team of the season 2021 replaced both racers. It means they are Romain Grosjean in Kevin Magnussen at the exit door. But so far this has not been confirmed.
Nevertheless, there is already a lot speculates about who they could be at Haas successors of Grosjean and Magnussen. Italian colleagues from Journal of Sport they published the following theory: The team is supposed to be thanks million sponsors landed a young Russian racer Nikita mazepinwho would become a teammate Mick Schumacher. Son of Michael Schumacher, who is currently leading the championship Formula 2, is then considered the most likely candidate Ferrari Academy young racers to advance in Formula 1. And theoretically I would have Ferrari with both Alfa Romeo and Haas the opportunity to find a seat for their youngster. Mick was most recently most often associated with Alfa Romeo.
Will Alfa Romeo stay with the current lineup in the 2021 season as well?
Judging by the allegations Sports newspaper, with the team Alfa Romeo there should be no change of racers. Kimi Raikkonen in Antonio Giovinazzi, another racer with Ferrari support, is expected to remain in the 2021 season. But even in this case: not confirmed. All that is clear is that he wants to Haas in the 2021 season to have a basis for the introduction of new rules in 2022 and to have racers in the team who will stay longer, as they want to prevent racers as a source of error in the transition to a completely new concept of race cars. “One of the things I definitely want is that we will have a racer in the 2021 season, who will stay in 2022 as well, because a whole new rule is coming," so Gunther Steiner, team manager Haas.
Haas has not yet made any decision - confirming the occupation of 2021 in Portugal?
Steiner also points out that decisions regarding the racing lineup of the season 2021 not yet adopted: "But I hope we know that soon.”In Schumacher is just as much a candidate for Haas as Nico Hulkenberg, says Steiner. “I haven’t spoken to Nico in recent weeks. As a team, he needs to know what we want before we start talking to candidates. It seems very insincere to me to talk to people and then let them down."
And what would you speak for Schumacher? On the one hand, the last name, he admits Steiner. "Who wouldn’t want Schumacher back in Formula 1, especially in such excellent form as he is showing in Formula 2 at the time. However, it’s not just the name that matters, but also the performance." Schumacher he had not yet sat in the car Haas, but he gained all his Formula 1 experience at Alfa Romeo in Ferrari. He was last in the race Eifel Grand Prix a guest of the Alfa Romeo team - after his appearance in the first free practice was canceled.
