BARCELONA, Spain -- After Kevin Magnussen was handed a reprimand for an incident in Friday practice, Haas boss Guenther Steiner said the Dane's rivals unfairly pick him out for criticism.
Magnussen had to visit the stewards after the end of FP1 after appearing to impede Sauber's Charles Leclerc, who angrily complained about it late in the session over his pit-to-car radio. The Danish driver avoided a more serious penalty after explaining to the stewards that he had slowed for a yellow flag and then not realised it had been cleared by the next part of the track, blocking the the approaching Leclerc in the process.
