Kevin Magnussen said he returned to Formula 1 with Haas in 2022 free of the goal to become a Formula 1 World Champion.

Magnussen came into Formula 1 as a part of the McLaren team in 2014, his career getting off to the perfect start as he claimed a podium on debut, securing P2 at the Australian Grand Prix.

That proved to be the only podium in Magnussen’s career though before he left the series at the end of 2020, at that stage unlikely to return as he went in search of a series where he could rediscover the winning feeling.
