Nikita Mazepin faces an anxious wait over the future of his Formula 1 career as the FIA prepare to hold showdown talks on Tuesday to decide his fate.
While the Haas F1 Team driver has not committed a personal offence, the FIA are considering a request from the Automobile Federation of Ukraine (FAU) to suspend all Russian driver licences and are holding an ‘extraordinary meeting’ to make a decision.
It comes after Russia president Vladimir Putin gave the order to invade Ukraine on February 24, with armed forces advancing towards the capital of Kyiv and attacking other Ukrainian cities.
