Ollie Bearman will race for Haas for the entirety of the♈ Sao Paulo Grand Prix week൩end after Kevin Magnussen has been ruled out through illness.

Initially, Mꦺagnussen was unable to drive on Friday in Brazil due to sickness.

This meant Bea﷽rman got the short-notice꧋ call-up to replace him in the Haas in Brazil.

However, there was still some un♑certainty over whether Magnussen would be ꦰable to return on Saturday.

The plan was for Bearman to driv𓆉e the sprint segment of the ☂weekend before handing back over to Magnussen for conventional qualifying.

But after sprint qualifying, Haas conf𒐪irmed he will drive for the rest of the week♌end.

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

Bearman is the team's official reserve driver but has also beeꦬn confirmed in thౠeir 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 poi💟nts on both occasions, starring impressively in Saudꦺi Arabia and Azerbaijan.

He did so again for Haas in sprint qualify🦩i♚ng, making the top 10, beating veteran teammate Nico Hulkenberg.
