Magnussen ‘probably most experienced at the Ring’

Kevin Magnussen might well be a rookie this season, but he believes he might have a slight upper hand when it comes to the Red Bull Ring.

With the circuit having changed slightly since it was last used in 2003 and only a few of the current drivers having ever driven it in a Formula 1 car, Magnussen has the advantage of having driven the new layout last year.

“It’s strange to be able to say it, but, of all the drivers on the F1 grid, I’ve probably got the most recent experience of racing at the Red Bull Ring, because two rounds of the World Series by Renault were held there last summer.”

The Danish driver is looking forward to returning to what he describes as a “physical” circuit which requires “constant concentration” despite it featuring just nine turns.
