Kevin Magnussen Misses Brazilian Grand Prix Due to Illness

Oliver Bearman steps in for Magnussen at Haas for the São Paulo race weekend as the Danish driver recovers from unexpected sickness.

Kevin Magnussen, a Haas F1 driver, will not participate in the Brazilian Grand Prix due to illness, as announced by the team on Friday.
Oliver Bearman, the 19-year-old reserve driver, will replace Magnussen for the weekend, starting with the Friday practice session.
Bearman, who is set to join Haas full-time in 2025, previously substituted for Magnussen in Azerbaijan and for Carlos Sainz at Ferrari in Saudi Arabia.
The FIA has approved Bearman's participation, allowing him to compete in the sprint race on Saturday and potentially Sunday's main event.
Haas has not confirmed if Magnussen will return for the main Grand Prix, pending his recovery and further updates from the team.
