Kevin Magnussen might struggle to hang onto his Haas race seat beyond 2023. The 30-year-old is no stranger to the American outfit, having first raced a Haas between 2017 and 2020 – before the team’s experiment with an all-rookie lineup in 2021. “Kevin is not in a happy place at the moment, being behind Nico,” team boss Gunther Steiner told the Mirror newspaper. “In the end it is all down to performance but, at the moment, I’m pretty relaxed about it,” Steiner insisted. Steiner said in Melbourne recently that he will speak with current Red Bull reserve Daniel Ricciardo about a potential Haas race seat for 2024 “at some point”.
