“We can say without a doubt that we have a very reliable pair of drivers this season, and therefore we have no reason to change them for the future,” Gunther Steiner, boss of the team from North Carolina.

Magnussen, 30, will compete in his seventh season with Haas, which he reached in 2017 after moving to McLaren and Renault. Although he was not retained on the team for the 2021 season, he returned the following year.

The Dane has finished in the points twice this year, finishing 10th in Saudi Arabia and Miami.

For his part, the experienced Hulkenberg (36), who returns to the starting line-up in 2023 after three years as a reserve driver at Aston Martin, will compete in his 11th season in motorsport’s top category.

The German driver has only finished one race with points this year, after finishing 7th in Australia, according to Agerpres.
