Featuring the striking White and Black Haas design, these are the very Alpinestars Boots worn by Magnussen at the Japanese Grand Prix weekend.
The boots worn by drivers are incredibly important. The first role they play is that they are made from a fire-retardant material to keep the drivers safe in case of fire.
Secondly, F1 drivers rely on the thin soles of the boots to have maximum feel of the pedals.
The slightest increase or decrease in throttle/brake pressure can have a massive impact. Therefore, the boots are designed to give the drivers maximum feel.
Kevin Magnusson started his career back in 2014 when he drove for McLaren having had a lot of success in the junior formulas.
KMag took a year off afterwards, returned to F1 in a Renault the year after for just 12 months before making a home at Haas.
The Danish man spent 2017-2020 driving for Haas before making way for some younger drivers.
When one of those young drivers drastically underperformed in 2021, KMag came back to his American family for the start of the 2022 season.
The Danish man has had a lot of successful races for Haas, most notably when he scored Haas' first ever Pole Position at the Brazilian GP in 2022.
The 2023 season carried some highlights, with his first points of the season coming at the Saudi GP, just the second round.
The Dane kept it up, with multiple point scoring finishes across the season.
Perhaps the best moment came for KMag when he managed to secure 4th place on the grid for the Miami GP.
The Japanese Grand Prix is one of the driver's favourites. It's undulating turns and complex nature makes it a fantastic challenge.
The GP is held at the Suzuka circuit, the classic purpose-built circuit has been in F1 since 1987, with a couple of short breaks. It is a fantastic feature for the F1 calendar that will not be going anywhere any time soon.

The Auto Bid Extend feature ensures that bidders will always have a chance to challenge bids placed in the final seconds of an auction. When indicated on a listing page, if a bid is placed during the last 5 minutes of an auction, the auction will automatically extend for an additional 5 minutes from the time of the latest bid. The auction will close once all bidding activity has stopped for a period of 5 minutes.
NOTE: Current Bid Amount and Countdown Timer are not "live." Click Refresh to update them or to see if the auction has been automatically extended by a last minute bid.
A straight bid is a one-time amount, that represents the price you are committing to bid. The price that is entered as a straight bid can be any amount that is equal to, or greater than the current amount plus the minimum increment.
This amount will become the new current bid amount of the item (i.e. the item is £100. A straight bid is placed at £200. The item price is now £200).
If there is a maximum bid on the item, the greater of the straight bid and maximum bid will be the highest bid amount.
If a straight bid and a maximum bid are placed at the same value, the bid that is placed earlier will become the winning bid.
This system offers a convenient bidding system option, so you don't have to continuously login to re-bid. When you place a maximum bid, you are entering the highest price you are willing to pay for an item. Your maximum bid is kept confidential until it is exceeded by another bidder.
When a maximum bid is placed, the system will place bids on your behalf at the bid increment amount above the current high bid. The system will bid by the increment to ensure you remain the highest bidder or to meet the reserve price (if applicable), up to your maximum bid amount.
If and only if duplicate maximum bids are entered, the customer who entered the maximum bid first will get priority and will be the winning bidder.
If another bidder places a higher bid above your maximum bid, you will be emailed to login and place another bid.
