Magnussen: Tire wear was too high

After a good qualifying in Haas F1, they hoped to earn points, but Kevin Magnussen retired the race and Mick Schumacher finished 15th…

Mick Schumacher (15th): “In the beginning, the Medium tires didn’t perform as well as we expected. I had to make an early pit stop, but soon the safety car left and the rivals were able to make a pit stop without wasting time. In Paul Ricard you lose a lot of time in the pit lane, so I was way behind and then there was contact with Zhou.

Overall, the weekend turned out to be difficult, but we learned a lot and hope to do better in Budapest.”

Kevin Magnussen (retirement): “I did my best, had a few good overtakes, but the tire wear was too high.

At the start of the segments, the car was great, just like yesterday in qualifying, but then the efficiency of the tires dropped sharply and we couldn’t compete with rivals.
