WATCH: Ride onboard with Magnussen for his lightning start in the Belgian GP
Kevin Magnussen did not enjoy a fruitful qualifying session at the Belgian Grand Prix, managing as he did, the slowest time of all the drivers to take 20th and last on the grid.
But the Haas driver made a superb getaway off the line once the lights went out on race day and immediately set about reeling in his rivals.
He jumped Kimi Raikkonen in the Alfa Romeo on the pit straight, before catching and passing his team mate Romain Grosjean, and then both Williams of Nicholas Latific and George Russell, all in one frenetic first lap.
Tap play on the video above to ride onboard with the Dane through that first racing lap of Spa Francorchamps.
