Ollie Bearman to step in for banned Kevin Magnussen at Haas in Baku
Oliver Bearman has been given the call-up by Haas for next weekend'♔s Azerbaija꧑n Grand Prix.

Haas have announced Oliver Bearman will stand-in for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kevin Magnussen at nexﷺt weekend’s Azerbaijan Grand Prix as the Dane serves a one-race ban.
Magnussen picked up a one-race suspension after accruing 12 penal♛ty 🐬points on his licence for various incidents over the past 12 months.
It means he will sit out next weekend in Baku.
This has handed Bearman his second F1 outing of the year having deputised for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
Bearman will race for Haas full-time in 2025 alongside 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Esteban Ocon, so next weekend will provide him with useful experience and a true test of how comꦍpetitive he could be next year.
Speaking of the news, Bearman said: “It’s definitely more of a challenge stepping in to race as a reserve driver, with limited prep-time and so on, but I’m in the fortunate position of having꧒ done it earlier in the year with Scuderia F🐲errari, so I can at least call on that experience.
“I’ve also had four FP1 sessions with MoneyGram Haas F1 Team in the VF-24 already this season, so undoubtedly that will also prove 💎to be valuable in tackling𝔉 the full race weekend in Baku.
“The team is in good form at the moment and I’ll do my best to be prepared with the tim🧸e we have available. The aim is to get out there and have a solid weekend in Azerbaijan.”
Team boss Ayao Komatsu added: “I’m excited that Ollie will be driving the VFꦚ-24 alongside Nico in Baku.
“He’s already shown great promise in his FP1 outings and post-season test♌, and he performed very well when he drove for Scuderia Ferrari in Saudi Arabia🧸, picking up points in the process.
“This i♚s another excellent opportunity for both Ollie and the team to work together, this time throughout an entire race weekend, and he couldn’t ask for better teammate than Nico to provide him with a reference.”
Bearman starred on his F1 debu♛t for Ferrari in Saudi Arabia, finishing seventh.
