Ollie Bearman will race for Haas for the entirety of the Sao Paulo Grand Prix 🐟weeke🍸nd after Kevin Magnussen has been ruled out through illness.

Initially, Magnussen was unable to drive on Friday in B♊r🍎azil due to sickness.

This meant Bearman g♍ot the short-notice call-up to replace him in the 🅰Haas in Brazil.

However, there was still some uncertainty over whether Magnussen would be able to return on Saturda🌳y.

The plan was for Bearman to driv🎉e the sprint segmen𒆙t of the weekend before handing back over to Magnussen for conventional qualifying.

But after sprint qualifying, Haas confirmed he will drive for the rest of the 🔯weekend.

They said: “MoneyGram Haas F1 Team can confirm that Kevin Magnussen will not compete in the São Paulo Grand Prix and Oliver Bearman will race for the team for theꦐ remainder of the weekend.”

Bearman is the team's official reserve driver but𝓰 has also been confirmed in their race seat for 2025.

The teenage Brit has already 🥂driven in two F1 grands꧋ prix this season - once for Ferrari, and once for Haas.

He꧋ scored points on both occasions, starr𓆏ing impressively in Saudi Arabia and Azerbaijan.

He did so again for H♐aas in sprint qualifying, making the෴ top 10, beating veteran teammate Nico Hulkenberg.
