Ocon's Haas Exit Confirmed as Camara Gets Promoted Early for Sao Paolo GP

Ferrari junior Rafael Camara will debut earlier than planned after Haas said Esteban Ocon will not drive for the team again this season.

  • On Tuesday, Haas confirmed Esteban Ocon will not return this season, naming 21-year-old Rafael Camara to drive the VF-26 at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix.
  • Team principal Ayao Komatsu removed Ocon midway through the Mexico City Grand Prix weekend following a heated disagreement, which the team labeled an "internal matter."
  • Ferrari academy prospect Camara currently leads the Formula 2 standings and was already signed for 2027, having impressed Haas during private testing in August.
  • With Haas reserve driver Ryo Hirakawa competing at Monza for the World Endurance Championship this weekend, he is unavailable to replace Ocon.
  • As Camara prepares for his high-pressure home debut at Interlagos, the 30-year-old Ocon remains without a confirmed drive for the 2027 season.
