Kevin Magnussen will part ways with the Haas F1 Team at the conclusion of the 2024 season.
is set to conclude his journey with the Haas F1 Team after the 2024 season, marking the end of his current contract and his tenure with the team.
Magnussen stands as the longest-tenured driver in the history of the Haas F1 Team, with an extensive and impactful racing career. Spanning over two periods, from 2017 to 2020 and from 2022-2024, his ongoing association with Haas will have lasted seven years by the conclusion of his contract. With 135 starts for Haas out of his 175 Formula 1 appearances, his contributions to the team are notable.
Magnussen’s tenure at Haas has been marked by noteworthy achievements, including his personal best ninth place in the 2018 Formula 1 Drivers’ Championship. During that season, he achieved top 10 finishes in over half of the races, demonstrating his skill and persistence. However, during this season so far, he has not managed to get the same performance out of the VF-24 as his teammate Nico Hulkenberg, who is also leaving the team for Sauber/Audi.
“There’s plenty of racing to go this year so I’m looking forward to seeing what else we can achieve with Kevin as we push together in the championship. Beyond that, and with Kevin’s special relationship with the team, I’m hoping we can find a way to keep working together in some capacity. We can hopefully define that in the near future, but his extensive experience in Formula 1 and knowledge of our working operations are undoubtedly of value in our on-going growth and development.
This news means that Haas will have an all-new driver line-up for 2025. The American team has already confirmed British rookie driver Oliver Bearman and there have been rumors circulating that Esteban Ocon is likely to sign with the team for next year.Lydia is the lead editor of F1 editorial.
