Formula One driver Nikita Mazepin was caught in the eye of a storm after he first posted and then deleted a video of a female passenger being groped in a car. The moment Mazepin shared the video, the pictures and screenshots went viral on social media immediately.

In a report by Reuters, Hass F1 team, who signed Mazepin for the 2021 Formula One season last week, went on to condemn him for his video online calling it 'abhorrent'.
