Pole is the first in the seven-year history of the Haas Formula 1 team.
It means the 30-year-old Magnussen will start Saturday’s 24-lap Sprint Race from top spot, on owner Gene Haas’ 70th
“I don’t know what to say,” said Magnussen. “The team put me out on track at exactly the right moment, we were first out in the pit lane, I did a pretty decent lap, but pole, it’s incredible. Thank you to Gene Haas, Guenther , the whole team for this opportunity, I got back this year after a year out and it’s just been an amazing journey.”
The pole comes toward the end of a redemptive season for both parties. Magnussen was only drafted back into Haas’ team on the eve of the 2022 season after the axing of Nikita Mazepin. He was previously let go by Haas at the end of 2020, following four years at the team, and feared his Formula 1 career was over.
