Hitech GP to Join F1 in 2026? Kazakh Billionaire Backs Bid

Oliver Oakes, founder of Hitech, welcomed Vladimir Kim to the group, recognizing the natural synergies between their ambitions. Oakes expressed his gratitude for Kim’s support, emphasizing its value in building on Hitech’s success and working towards broader ambitions in the coming years.

Hitech has witnessed several notable names pass through its ranks on their way up the junior ladder. While the team has secured 10 race victories, their highest finish in the teams’ standings was fourth since joining the F2 grid in 2020. Former Haas F1 driver Nikita Mazepin achieved two wins in Hitech’s debut F2 season, and Red Bull junior Liam Lawson also raced for the team in 2021.
