Its quite normal for drivers to sign a one-year contract if you have the feeling you are wanted in the team, Magnussen told Sky Sports. l got the feeling they were only looking short term and thats not good. I had a better offer. Gutierrez is yet to score a point since his return to F1 with Haas at the start of the year while team-mate Grosjean has picked up 29 points for F1s newest team.From the time we began looking at drivers, Kevin Magnussen was always on our short list, said team boss Gene Haas.Hes accomplished a lot in a very short period of time, and we feel like he can accomplish a lot with us. Our second season will bring a new set of challenges, and we feel that pairing Kevin with Romain will help us develop our new car and continue our growth.Magnussen previously drove for McLaren for a single season in 2014 before being replaced by Fernando Alonso alongside Jenson Button.Confirmation of the Danes switch to Haas means there are just four vacancies remaining for 2017 at the Manor and Sauber outfits.Jolyon Palmer, Magnussens partner this year, will be staying on at Renault as team-mate to Nico Hulkenberg.

He was eligible to return after Week 6.He spent his rookie season last year on injured reserve after tearing major ligaments in both knees during college at South Carolina. The serious knee injuries derailed his 2011 and 12 seasons before the Niners took a chance on him in the draft anyway. He underwent surgery for a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in 2011.The 23-year-old Lattimore wasnt around for Sundays 13-10 loss to St. Louis. Last week, he expressed how thankful he was to finally get on the field, calling it a big moment, while adding, its a blessing, thats what it is.Lattimores agent, Michael Perrett, posted on Twitter on Monday that no decision has been made on @MarcusLattimores future. Messages left for Perrett and Lattimore werent immediately returned.Lattimore hurt his right knee just before halftime of a 38-35 win by South Carolina against Tennessee in 2012, the second straight season his year was ended by a serious knee injury. Tennessee players came out as a group while Lattimore was being carted off that afternoon to wish him well and show support.Harbaugh declined Monday to share anything from his discussions with Lattimore or say how difficult it would be to see Lattimores career end after such a rigorous commitment to his rehab.Last Wednesday started the teams 21-day window to determine whether to activate him to the 53-man roster or place him on season-ending injured reserve.In interesting timing, San Francisco announced it had re-signed running back Kendall Hunter to a one-year contract extension through the 2015 season. He iss out for the season after tearing his right ACL in training camp.ddddddddddddThe 49ers coach was still trying to regroup from an ugly home loss to the Rams in which quarterback Colin Kaepernick was sacked eight times and fumbled at the goal line with 2 seconds remaining while trying to score the go-ahead touchdown.Harbaughs play-calling came into question, while running back Frank Gore defended offensive co-ordinator Greg Roman. Harbaugh reiterated Monday his faith in Roman.Were not going to be concerned what other people think or point out, Harbaugh said. What were going to do, were going to take action to improve and get on to the next ballgame. ... Were going to address the areas we need improvement and attack it.He declined to point out certain players struggles, preferring to meet with his entire team Tuesday to discuss what went wrong and how to move forward.While Kaepernick was working with a new centre, rookie Marcus Martin making his NFL debut, Harbaugh said the two didnt have issues with their timing on snaps during practice last week.For the most part it was good, he said. As you watch the tape you see where we all have fingerprints on this.And he had already watched the film a few times as of lunchtime Monday.San Francisco (4-4) knows it has work to do to make another post-season run. The Niners have reached three straight NFC championship games, but find themselves in third place in the tough NFC West — with two games against Seattle and one with first-place Arizona still remaining.There are two tough road trips the next two weeks, beginning at New Orleans this Sunday then a trip to New York.The ship didnt sink, were still in it, tight end Vernon Davis said.Notes: Harbaugh said LB Dan Skuta (ankle) and WR Brandon Lloyd (hamstring) were being examined further. ... Of Tramaine Brock, who missed Sundays game with turf toe after playing against the Broncos on Oct. 19, Harbaugh would only say, well continue to assess that.___AP Sports Writer Pete Iacobelli in Columbia, South Carolina, contributed to this report.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
