McLaren racing director Eric Boullier believes that Kevin Magnussen is suffering from ‘rookie syndrome’ in his maiden Formula 1 season.
Boullier reckons that McLaren’s young protege is facing the typical challenge of moving from winning regularly in junior formula to competing for the top 10 in the sport’s top echelon.
Magnussen finished on the podium on his Formula 1 debut in Australia but has scored just a handful of points across the most recent five events.
