Kevin Magnussen says his hands are 'fine' after taking a knock when he crashed in Mexico.
Kevin Magnussen says a rear left suspension failure led to his high-speed Mexican Grand Prix crash, the driver revealing his hands took a knock in the impact.
Magnussen was able to climb out of the car unaided, a good thing as shortly after the rear caught fire.He was taken to the track’s medical centre where Haas announced he was okay but would be kept a bit longer for observation.“I crashed after having a rear left suspension failure,” he said. “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.
With Daniel Ricciardo finishing seventh with AlphaTauri, they have now overhauled Haas in the standings by four points to relegate the American team to the bottom of the log. “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,” he said. “It was a tough day again, but it’s not all negative.
