Newest paydriver in F1, who is this guy?

After a disastrous year for Haas F1, they chose to separate ways with Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen. Haas has opted for a completely new rookie line up. One of them Mick (2020 F2 champion), is the son of the seven time world champion Michael Schumacher. The other driver is Nikita Mazepin, son of Dmitry Mazepin. This is one of the richest man from russia. He payed his son into F1.

In the history of F1, a paydriver isn't something new. From Lance Stroll to Marcus Ericsson, we have seen it all. Almost all of the F1 paydrivers have failed to prove them self. Only a small hand has proven they are F1 worthy. One of these drivers is for example: four times worldchampion Niki Lauda. But to stay at our subject: Nikita Mazepin, We will go down in memory lane to see what Mazepin has achieved in recent years. In 2016 he debuted to F3 and it wasn't exactly a good debut year. He finished 20th in the standings. In 2017 and 18 he stayed in F3 and was mostly driving in the back of the field. In 2019 he debuted to F2 and it was the same story all over again. Nikita isn't famous for his driving skills but for his actions off-track. Mazepin is often enough the topic of the day. He has several scandals on his mind, to name some of them: he punched Illot after the free practice on the Hungaroring, made fun of the corona virus and groped a girl on camera against her will. The frustration about him is that he is not aware of any harm he is doing and mostly doesn't take blame for his actions.

I am curious to see how he will ''behave'' in de Formula 1 world. He has a strong teammate and I hope so that Mazepin doesnt do anything crazy towards Mick. Comparing the results from the past, Mick has the best cards in hand.
