Can you believe it? K-Mag on pole for Haas! Even Magnussen himself couldn’t come to terms with the fact once his team informed him on the radio. It was a fantastic achievement for the Dane as well as the American team. But there was one man who outdid everyone on social media while congratulating the Danish driver.
Esteban Ocon took to Twitter to congratulate Magnussen. But his post on social media wasn’t a generic wish. He delved deep into the annals of Drive to Survive meme-worthy moments and dug out the perfect congratulatory message.
