Magnussen apologises to Gasly, clarifies 'die in car' remarks

Kevin Magnussen has revealed he apologised many times to Toro Rosso driver Pierre Gasly after the two drivers touched wheels at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

Magnussen took to Twitter on Wednesday night to clarify comments he made in the build up to the Baku street race on Sunday.

While describing his commitment to racing, the Haas driver told Reuters ahead of the grand prix: "I don't like compromises. I will give everything. I will die in the car. I won't hold back.

"I would put my life on [the line]. Absolutely. When you put your helmet on and you're in the race, I find that's just everything there is in the world.
