Magnussen’s♕ Haas was completely destroyed, capping off a dis💯mal day for the team.
Steiner said after the race: “With Kevin, he had a suspension failure, so we🧔 need to dig into why that happened, but it seems to be heat related – we need to check. It was a tough day again, but it’s not all negative.”

Reflectin꧅g on the incident, Magnussen revealed that he got “a knock on his hands” f🅘rom the crash.
“I crashed afﷺter having a rear left suspension fa🍃ilure,” Magnussen explained. “It happened in a bad place and I hit the wall, so I got a knock on my hands and they hurt a little bit, but they’re fine.
“We have to investigate a b🎃it more what exactly happened as it just gave up.
“Before that, it was going okay, I was stuck in traffic for a🥂 long time and cooked my tyres, but I don’t know if whatever caused the failure had an impact for a while beforehand.”
