You know, KMag gets a lot of shit but I'm truthfully going to miss him on the grid. Love him or hate him he is a true racer, and you can always rely on him providing some entertainment on Sundays. In an era when most people on the back half of the grid are thinking strategically and focusing on their own race, KMag is one of the few who will always defend hard, even if it's Verstappen behind after a pitstop and he really stands no chance in the long run. As someone who enjoys the duels I can't help but appreciate him.

Agreed. I like to goof on him but i like him, i like his passion, and he's a hard driver. He's here for the right reasons, and i respect that.

More details on that as well as who will take his seat: https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/magnussen-to-depart-haas-after-2024-f1-season-ocon-closes-on-2025-deal/10635674/

Jesus, just say it.

Almost certainly Ocon

Oh fuck me i thought we got that guy off the grid

[-] hypnotoad__@lemmy.ml 11 points 4 months ago

We need someone to crash into people, so it makes perfect sense to replace kmag with ocon!

[-] tartan@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 months ago

But we already have Stroll. Surely that’s enough, no?

[-] florge@feddit.uk 2 points 4 months ago

Yeah but Stroll usually only crashes through incompetence, we need that hard racing too.

Didn't want to spoil the fun 👀

I thought Bearman was going to take KMag's seat, no?

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

Bearman is confirmed to take Hulks seat, as Nico is moving to Audi-Sauber

[-] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Huh. TIL, thanks for the heads up!

[-] Rapidcreek@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

Nico Muller left Peugeot,so KMag will probably wind up there. Shame though, loved the guy's balls out starts.
