Mexican GP: Driver Preview Quotes - Haas

DRIVER PREVIEW QUOTES - HAAS F1 TEAM

Romain Grosjean - “Brake cooling is an issue because of the air density. From there, we also have very little down force because we’re at altitude. I guess the biggest thing for us to feel is the down force loss. The biggest challenge for the car is the cooling.”

Kevin Magnussen - “You need a lot of down force there. As the air is thin, you lose down force. It’s pretty tricky. You can see the effect it has on top speeds. Because the air is so thin, you don’t have a lot of drag from the air down the straight. Our maximum speeds go very high. It’s one of the tricky races that you have to compromise a lot of things in order to cool the car and find down force.

    The atmosphere is awesome. You have the infield part – the stadium part – and it’s always packed. The Mexican people are really into it. It’s a great atmosphere. You notice it on the driver’s parade, for sure. The fans are very passionate.”
