Haas F1 Team finds itself at the center of a legal storm involving the seizure of its assets by Dutch authorities. This action stems from an ongoing controversy
. This action stems from an ongoing controversy with Uralkali, a key sponsor the team dropped in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The root of the conflict is approximately $9 million that Haas owes to Uralkali. Team chief Ayao Komatsu has reacted to this news.
On the other side, Uralkali has expressed its frustration with how the situation has been handled by Haas. In a statement to RacingNews365, a spokesperson from Uralkali detailed: "The arbitral ruling was issued June 12th with immediate effect and has been ignored by Haas. Haas has had over two months to implement the ruling, and, as was reported previously, Uralkali reached out to Haas’ representatives with options about how to make payment and where to send the race car, without ever receiving a substantive answer."
