Kevin Magnussen slams 'Formula Fuelsaving' after Austin DQ

AUSTIN, Texas -- Shortly after his U.S. Grand Prix disqualification was confirmed, Kevin Magnussen took to social media to criticise Formula One's fuel regulations.

Magnussen finished ninth at the Circuit of the Americas but was thrown out of the result for breaching the fuel limit mandated in the regulations -- 105 kg for an entire race. Although the stewards verdict did not specify how much the Haas had been over, Magnussen used an exclamation mark to point out that it had been just 0.1kg.

Unfortunately today we were racing in Formula Fuelsaving rather than Formula 1.
