A new race engineer for Kevin Magnussen

Kevin Magnussen finally knows the identity of his new race engineer. Mark Slade will join the team Haas and will become the Dane's new engineer. “K-Mag” previously worked with Ed Regan, but he was replaced before the Spa-Francorchamps round (Belgium). He was then replaced in the last three Grands Prix by Dominic Haines, former track engineer of Romain Grosjean and Nikita mazepin, and who had since transitioned to a role involving less travel ever since.

Mark Slade is far from an unknown name in Formula 1. The Briton, a graduate of Heriot-Watt University, spent nearly 20 years at McLaren, between 1991 and 2009. He had worked notably with Mika Häkkinen, Kimi Räikkönen and Heikki Kovalainen. Slade then left for Renault in 2010, then at Mercedes in 2011 before returning to enstone between 2012 and 2021, collaborating with Nico Hulkenberg Esteban Ocon including.

Kevin Magnussen and Mark Slade will have the honor of beginning their partnership from the Singapore Grand Prix, from September 30 to October 2.
