Esteban Ocon calls split rumours with Haas 'complete bulls**t'

Esteban Ocon has strongly denied reports that he could leave Haas Formula 1 team early after the Miami Grand Prix. The French driver said the claims of a dispute with team principal Ayao Komatsu were fabricated.

Ocon addressed the rumours during the Canadian Grand Prix weekend. He said he has known Komatsu since 2014 and maintains a strong relationship with the team principal. Ocon confirmed he holds a contract for the full 2026 season and remains fully committed to Haas despite a challenging start to the year marked by safety cars and misfortune in early races.

Following his disqualification for a technical infringement, Red Bull's Isack Hadjar downplayed his 0.825-second qualifying deficit to teammate Max Verstappen at the 2026 F1 Miami Grand Prix, blaming low-grip conditions rather than a true performance gap. Verstappen credited a steering system fix and upgrades for Red Bull's resurgence.

Haas team principal Ayao Komatsu said the squad will decide its driver line-up for 2027 around May, June or July. Both current drivers, Oliver Bearman and Esteban Ocon, have contracts expiring at the end of 2026.

In his first public comments since the heavy crash at last month's Japanese Grand Prix, Haas driver Oliver Bearman has blamed Franco Colapinto for not leaving enough space amid a 50km/h speed differential, calling the incident 'unacceptable' after drivers had discussed such risks in pre-race briefings.
