Hate Mazepin because he’s not good, not because he bought his seat. In one form or another, everyone on the grid has done this.

Hamilton didn't come from wealth. Neither did Albon. I'm sure their are others.
The only reason Mazepin had a seat was his dad's money. Lance Stroll, the next argument, actually won F3 the season Nikita paced 20th.
F1 isn't political, it's capitalist. Mazepin lost to that, not the politics. If they cared one bit about politics they wouldn't race in all the countries they do. It's a stupid club he created, for stupid reasons.
