Sao Paulo Grand Prix: In a last-minute change at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, Haas has confirmed that Ollie Bearman will race in place of Kevin Magnussen, who will not return for the remainder of the weekend due to illness.

Magnussen’s withdrawal was announced shortly before Friday’s action at the Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace, with Bearman called in to substitute for practice, Sprint Qualifying, and the Sprint race on Saturday. Following a second announcement after the Sprint Qualifying session, Haas stated Bearman would continue to race for the team in both Saturday’s qualifying and Sunday’s Grand Prix.
