Kevin Magnussen: Haas will have calmer approach to next rain-affected race

BUDAPEST, Hungary -- Despite losing a big haul of points last weekend, Kevin Magnussen feels the late chaos of the German Grand Prix provided a good learning opportunity for himself and Haas.

Having run sixth for most of the race, Magnussen was shuffled out of contention for points late on as the rain intensified at Hockenheim. Two errors on one lap saw him slip behind Nico Hulkenberg and teammate Romain Grosjean, which in turn meant he had to wait patiently in the pit stops as Haas decided to double-stack its drivers for tyre changes. He was unable to replicate Grosjean's late charge through the field and finished 11th.
