On October 5, 2023, Magnussen celebrated his 31st birthday ahead of the Qatar Grand Prix race weekend. The Haas squad brought a birthday cake and celebrated the Dane's birthday in their hospitality area. During the Thursday F1 press conference in Qatar, when Hulkenberg was asked whether he got a gift for his teammate, he had a mysterious reply."Yeah, he got a cake. And he’s gonna have another special gift later, a personal one," the German driver said via PlanetF1.When press conference host Tom Clarkson goaded him for an explanation, Nico Hulkenberg caved and said:"It’s a toilet brush! I’m sure you don’t want to know the details!" Later on during the press conference, the German was asked more about his choice of gifting teammate Kevin Magnussen a toilet brush."All I can really say is that you know in the European season, the driver rooms are in the back of trucks. We share the toilet and the shower, and stuff. So that’s all I can say!" Hulkenberg replied with a smile.After the 2024 season, both drivers left Haas. While K-Mag lost his seat and couldn't find another for 2025, Hulkenberg joined Sauber (to-be Audi) on a multi-year deal. As fate would have it, Hulk's first career podium in Silverstone this year came when Magnussen was present in the paddock, his first paddock appearance since exiting Haas after the 2024 season.
