Motorsport.com revealed last week that Haas had rejected a request from its former title sponsor, Uralkali, for repayment of funds after its contract was terminated in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Uralkali was seeking repayment of $13 million from Haas, but the team is now itself chasing more than $8 million as compensation for loss of profits from the sponsor whose owner, Dmitry Mazepin, has links to Russian president Vladimir Putin.
