Letter suggests Rich Energy owe Haas £35m!
A document has suggested that Haas are demading £35 million from sponsors Rich Energy if they are to split, as mentioned by Rich Energy's tweets.
Today @rich_energy terminated our contract with @HaasF1Team for poor performance. We aim to beat @redbullracing & being behind @WilliamsRacing in Austria is unacceptable. The politics and PC attitude in @F1 is also inhibiting our business. We wish the team well #F1 #richenergy pic.twitter.com/9mAt2dOnYu

Haas still ran with Rich Energy logos on their car at last weekend's British Grand Prix, where both Kevin Magnussen and Romain Grosjean retired after contact with each other on the first lap.
The situation is still no closer to being resolved, with Rich Energy now tweeting this letter.
Just to disavow people of lies from @HaasF1Team please see below. @rich_energy terminated the agreement as we said. The team have accepted contrary to their public denial.They were complicit in trying to oust CEO William Storey who even gave them a £35m personal guarantee #truth pic.twitter.com/RZodxJd4js
