F1 | Salvi: “Magnussen is like Raikkonen”

The race engineer of Haas found similarities between the Danish driver and the Finnish Ferrari driver.

Giuliano Salvi now works alongside Magnussen but he was previously the race engineer of Ferrari di Michael Schumacher, Felipe Massa, Fernando Alonso e Kimi Raikkonen.

In terms of behavior, the Dane reminds him a lot of the Ferrari driver:

“He's very honest and direct, I really like him. Characteristically, he reminds me a lot of Kimi. They are both Nordic, they are not interested in politics. The first impression can be misleading because they struggle to immediately establish contact with you. But then, when you start working with them and get to know them more deeply, they're really open. They're like cats! If they are scared you see them, if they are angry you understand it immediately and this is positive because you know how they think. You never leave a meeting wondering if Kevin meant something else, he says what he thinks.".
