Athletistic/Formula 1. The Haas team has returned the remaining sponsorship funds to Uralkali, including interest and arbitration fees, and has also transferred the racing car for the 2021 season. This is according to a press release from the Russian company.

Uralkali was the team’s title sponsor, and the company owner’s son Nikita Mazepin drove for Haas in Formula 1. However, after the events of February 2022, Haas terminated the contract with Mazepin and ended the sponsorship. In June 2024, the Swiss arbitration court ordered the team to return the money and the car.

In this regard, Uralkali has informed Dutch government agencies about the possibility of lifting the seizure of Haas assets, which would allow the team to take them out of the country. Uralkali plans to use the funds received to expand production capacities.
