Why Haas dumped Ocon - and why new star ...

THE RACE MEDIA LTD
About this episode

Brazilian fans will have another driver to cheer for in Sao Paulo this weekend, with Haas drafting in the man they’ve signed to drive for them in 2027 - Rafael Camara - to replace Esteban Ocon. But why has Haas dumped Ocon for the rest of 2026, where might he end up next, and how will Camara deal with the pressure of a home F1 debut?


In the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast, sponsored by Skinceuticals, Edd Straw is joined by Jon Noble - with a special contribution from veteran Brazilian journalist Lito Cavalcanti - to answer those questions and look ahead to the Brazilian Grand Prix - including what the fallout will be from the heated Hamilton-Leclerc Mexican Grand Prix battle and heated post-race comments.
