The Formula 1 community will be well represented next month at Daytona for the Rolex 24, with Kevin Magnussen joining several of his fellow F1 rivals.

According to Ekstra Bladet, Magnussen is close to a deal to fill a seat with the Action Express Racing team which will field a Dallara, a technical partner of the Haas F1 Team.

The Danish driver's father, Jan Magnussen, is a regular visitor to the Rolex 24 and is scheduled to contest the event once again with a Corvette.
