The Haas F1 team paddock is becoming the hot spot to lay eyes on an athlete competing in America. And joining the growing list of athletes spotted at the Haas paddock is Conor McGregor. The team shared photos and videos of the Irishman posing with the team at the Monaco paddock. And he even posed with his arms around the Mick Schumacher.

Haas is the only America-based Formula 1 team on the grid, which is why the UFC champion was spotted at the Haas paddock. This trend could in part be credited to the popularity of Drive to Survive, as the NFL superstars, JJ and TJ Watt did something similar when the circus traveled to Miami.

Guenther Steiner is not satisfied with Mick Schumacher’s performances. The team has manufactured an incredibly competitive machine as compared to previous seasons, and the recalled Magnussen is showing that on the track.

However, Mick is yet to score any points for the team. This is his second year with the team and he has not shown any signs of improvement. His uncle Ralf Schumacher believes there are offers from a couple of teams for Mick. And one of those could be the seat of Sebastian Vettel at Aston Martin.
