The information comes from the Program Manager of the 99 Racing team in Asian Le Mans Series (Asian LMS), Dan Hodder. Nikita mazepin withdraws from the final two meetings of the 2024 season scheduled in Abu Dhabi on February 10 and 11.
The old pilot Haas en Formula 1 fell ill Wednesday morning; doctors recommended that he stay away from all sporting activities for the rest of the week. A hard blow for the man who won two rounds at Sepang (Malaysia) then in Dubai, and who led the LM P2 championship with the Swiss Louis Delétraz and the Omani Ahmad Al Harthy with a 20-point lead before this final weekend. .
The 99 Racing team, which is entering an Oreca 07, called on the Portuguese Filipe Albuquerque to replace the Russian.

Now I'm just trying to help these guys secure the titles! »
