It has long been known that Nico Hülkenberg will leave the Haas team at the end of the season due to his contract with the works Audis. It is also an open secret that Oliver Bearman, who made a spectacular debut for Scuderia Ferrari, will take his place.
The only question was when, but it looks like it will be here. The signing of Bearman, who competes in F2 for the Prema Racing Team, could be announced at the British Grand Prix. This will be special for the young driver, as it will all happen in front of a home crowd, and he will also get a chance to race at Haas during the first free practice of the race weekend. Negotiations are already so advanced that we can also know how much the youngster will earn. It is certain that he will not be the highest-paid premier class driver of all time, as he will receive 250-300 thousand pounds per year, which is the equivalent of 120-140 million forints.
