Kevin Magnussen believes the rules could be changed to stop games being played during races, similar to his antics during the Miami Sprint.
Haas driver Kevin Magnussen has called for an improvement to the rules to prevent drivers from engaging in any games following his actions in the Miami Grand Prix sprint. During the 19-lap race at the Miami International Autodrome, Magnussen received 35 seconds’ worth of time penalties for repeatedly leaving the circuit and gaining an advantage while battling Lewis Hamilton for eighth place. Although he defended his tactics, one of his comments raised suspicions of unsportsmanlike behavior, leading to an investigation by the stewards. Despite the penalties, Magnussen remained motivated to fight on, especially after learning that his competitors also faced penalties. McLaren’s team principal Andreas Stella even suggested that Magnussen should refrain from participating in races. After accepting his penalties with honesty and acknowledging their fairness, Magnussen proposed changes to the rules to prevent similar actions and ensure immediate consequences for misconduct on the track.
