New Haas F1 car should suit Magnussen better, says boss Komatsu
Last season, Kevin Magnussen struggled with the handling of the Haas VF-23, as its characteristics did not suit his driving style, which prioritizes carrying speed through corners. The car lacked stability when braking and rotating simultaneously, making it more suited for drivers with a V-style approach, like Nico Hulkenberg. Haas has made improvements over the winter to address these issues, and Magnussen should feel the benefits. According to new team boss Ayao Komatsu, Magnussen needs good entry stability and consistent handling through corners. Komatsu has a good working relationship with both drivers and believes that honest communication will lead to progress.
