Haas retains Kevin Magnussen, Romain Grosjean for 2019

SOCHI, Russia -- Haas will retain its current line-up of Kevin Magnussen and Romain Grosjean for the 2019 Formula One season.

The American team has remained tight-lipped over its future plans for much of the year, although Magnussen's extension has seemed a formality since early in the campaign. The future of Grosjean was less certain, with the Frenchman struggling for form and failing to score a point until the Austrian Grand Prix.

However, Haas boss Guenther Steiner said a decision would always be made after the August summer break, and that period has coincided with an upturn in form for Grosjean.
