Is Mick feeling the pressure from Magnussen?

Haas team principal Guenther Steiner turned the tables when the interviewer asked him how long the team can maintain their current form.

Considering the team were lagging at the back of the pack throughout 2021, Haas’ transformation at the start of the 2022 campaign has been nothing short of remarkable.

The American outfit put all of their focus last season into the new 2022 regulations, which has paid off early in the form of P5 and P9 finishes for Kevin Magnussen in the opening two rounds.

Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton even said he had no answer to Magnussen’s speed in the latter stages of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

“Why you think we cannot keep it going?”

Clarkson clarified he was asking due to the budget
