Haas F1 Is Done With Rich Energy
Haas F1 Is Done With Rich Energy-March 2024

Image for article titled Haas F1 Is Done With Rich Energy

Pour one out for , race fans (if you were ever able to find an actual can of Rich Energy to pour out, that is). The saga looks like it’s finally over. The embattled would-be energy drink company and its bombastic leader are finally parting ways with the team.

Here’s the tweet from Haas F1 confirming the split:

While Haas cites the split as being amicable, I can’t help but notice how politely savage some of the other statements are. “While enjoying substantial brand recognition and significant exposure through its title sponsorship of Haas F1 Team in 2019, a corporate restructuring process at Rich Energy will see the need for a revised global strategy.”

That’s how I’m ending all my personal and business partnerships from here on out.

If you missed the drama here, it’s... a little complicated to explain. The elusive Rich Energy drink out of nowhere and was difficult to research.

It’ll be almost sad to see Rich Energy go. The company has certainly kept the 2019 season alive with intrigue and drama in a totally unprecedented way.

Where is Haas going from here? The team hasn’t said much on the sponsor front, but I think it’s fair to say that it’ll be better off—even without Rich Energy as a (pretty unstable) source of sponsorship income.
