Kevin Magnussen has said that he has not experienced any brake issues with his new team, Haas F1. The American outfit suffered heavily from brake problems towards the end of the 2016 season. 

Team principal Guenther Steiner says the team is still having a little trouble, but Dane Magnussen has not experienced any trouble with his brakes so far.

"People ask about brake problems with our car, but I've had no problems," he is quoted by the Danish newspaper BT. "I think it is all working well. I am reasonably happy with the brakes, but I am still in the process of learning about the car, becoming more familiar and pushing it to the limit.

"When you achieve this, you obviously make more mistakes and have more problems, but until now it has been quite good," Magnussen added.

Haas currently run with Brembo brakes, an Italian manufacturer. However, the team will run trials with rival company Carbon Industrie brakes later this year.
