Haas F1 Team driver Kevin Magnussen knocked down an impressive 153 laps Thursday in his final preseason testing drive of the Haas VF-18 at Circuit de Barcelona – Catalunya. It was the highest single-day lap tally for the American squad so far this season, with Magnussen besting is own 96-lap mark set during each of his previous two test days at the 4.655-kilometer (2.892-mile), 16-turn track.
Teammate Romain Grosjean takes over the Haas VF-18 for the final day of testing Friday, but on the penultimate day of on-track running, Magnussen brought his testing total to 381 laps or 1,773.55 kilometers (1,102.033 miles).
