Kevin Magnussen returned to the Formula 1 grid last season after Haas terminated Nikita Mazepin’s contract just a few days before the 2022 season began.
Despite kickstarting his F1 career in the best way possible with a second-place finish on his debut at the Australian Grand Prix back in 2014, the Danish driver seemed to have lost his way in the last few years until he made a surprise return to F1 last season with Haas.
The 30-year-old not only scored 25 points and helped Haas finish eighth in the Constructors’ Championships, but he also registered the team’s first pole position.
As a result of such impressive performances, Magnussen has seen his worth increase significantly in recent years. Here is a look at both a summary and a detailed look at the Danish driver’s net worth.

Magnussen’s struggles with inconsistency in his early F1 days
Kevin Magnussen’s first experience in Formula 1 came in Abu Dhabi in 2012 when he got the opportunity to drive the McLaren MP4-27 as a part of the young driver test.
He then rose up the ranks of the team and made his debut at the Australian Grand Prix in 2014. In his very first race, Magnussen not only finished second but also beat his veteran teammate, Jenson Button.
However, after a series of underwhelming performances from that point on, the Danish driver failed to keep his seat and was replaced by Fernando Alonso for the 2015 season.
While Magnussen remained with McLaren as a reserve driver, he was eventually released at the end of the 2015 season. The 30-year-old then joined Renault in 2016 and scored seven of the eight points for them that year.
