KEVIN MAGNUSSEN ranted “f***ing hell” as Formula 1 stars raced during day two of pre-season testing.
The stars of the sport have descended upon Bahrain as the 2024 season edges ever closer.
With the first race under a fortnight away, F1 teams are honing their strategies as they look to maximise their performances.
During day two of testing, drivers simulated a rolling restart.
Lewis Hamilton will have enjoyed it, as his Mercedes sped off into the distance.
One man that showed frustration, however, was Haas ace Magnussen.
According to Formula Racers, the Dane bellowed down his team radio: “They’re actually racing each other. F***ing hell!”
Following a drama-filled winter, the season is set to begin in Bahrain on March 2.
During the off-season it was confirmed that Hamilton, 39, will be joining Ferrari ahead of the 2025 season.
Ahead of his final year with Mercedes, the seven-time world champion recently said: “It’s obviously been emotional.

“It’s very surreal to be here. I came here in 2013, 11 years with the team, this is the start of my 12th.
“The focus through the whole of winter training is getting the team back to where we once were.
“We have had these difficult couple of years which have been really grounding for us.
“‘It is such a privilege to work with people to see the work they’re doing over the winter.
“This is the most exciting part of the year. To know everything underneath the hood, that George (Russell) and I will be able to experience on the track. It’s exciting.”
Addressing the situation, team principal Toto Wolff said: “When the news broke, clearly it was a new situation. It’s something that we didn’t anticipate happening at that stage of the season and is a new dynamic and that’s clearly something we would have to work on.
“But having said that, we’ve been together, spent some time in the factory and been at various events and it’s absolutely fine on a human level.
“In professional terms, we have a full season to go. We want to have the best competitive car and give both drivers the opportunity to get the best possible results.
“How great would it be to finish on a high with Lewis this year. We’ve had several wonderful times and 10 more months to go and we will give it our all.”
