The 30-year-old joined the American outfit from Alpine ahead of the 2025 campaign, teaming up with British rookie Oliver Bearman.Speculation about his departure had mounted in recent months as he complained about his car and hinted that his teammate was treated better. Ocon plans to stay in the sport.”My time with Haas F1 Team will come to an end at the end of the 2026 season,” Ocon posted on X. “I leave this project with my head held high and proud of my performances in what were not always the easiest of circumstances for various reasons and factors outside of my control.”My immediate focus is the next race weekend. I will continue to work hard with the team, maximise every opportunity, and keep extracting every bit of performance from the car.”I am still motivated. I am still hungry. This is absolutely not the end of my Formula 1 career.” Haas did not say who would replace him.Ocon currently sits 16th in the drivers’ standings with seven points, three places behind Bearman.The Frenchman has scored 12 points finishes across 39 grands prix with Haas, his best fifth place in China last year.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. (AFP) Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said yesterday it was time to end the months-long Middle East war with the United States because Tehran appeared to be in a stronger position than Washington. Talks between the decades-old foes remain on hold, with both sides in the war started by the US and Israel in February locked in a stalemate. Tehran is keeping the key Strait of Hormuz partially shut and Washington is persisting with a naval counter-blockade of Iran. “It is better that we bring the war to an end now as we are in a position of power and dignity,” Pezeshkian said in a meeting with doctors. “The whole world acknowledges our victory and emphasises that America has attacked our schools, hospitals and infrastructure in violation of all regulations and is hated around the world.” Pezeshkian also defended a memorandum of understanding agreed with the US in June aimed at ending the war, claiming it did not signal a defeat for Tehran. “They cannot find even a single clause in this agreement that indicates capitulation. All the commitments concern the other side,” he said. His remarks come weeks after Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei said he had approved the deal to end the war despite having “different views”.Hardline lawmakers in Iran’s parliament have also criticised the government over the deal, accusing it of giving concessions to the US, mostly over the re-opening of the strategic Hormuz Strait. —AFP Source link
