Mick Schumacher spoke about his father Michael in an interview.
Now there is a sensational message from Formula 1.
Mick Schumacher
wants to compete for the title in Formula 2 in 2020.
Michael Schumacher's son recently spoke about his father.
Now comes a hammer message from Formula 1 *.
Update from September 1, 11:05 a.m.:
The message hit like a bomb:
Alfa Romeo is
thinking about having
Mick Schumacher
tested in a Formula 1 cockpit this season.
After his father Michael and his uncle Ralf - will there be another
Schumacher
in the premier class
soon
?
There are increasing signs that Mick will be driving Alfa Romeo as early as 2021.
And not just as a test driver, because: The current drivers Kimi Räikkönen and Antonio Giovinazzi could leave the Swiss.
Raikkonen is 40 years old and is probably heading towards the end of his career.
Giovinazzi does not advertise himself with his achievements either, recently made
another spectacular takeoff
in
Spa
.
So do both have to go?
Sky
expert
Ralf Schumacher
now expressed an interesting thought: “I also think that they are looking for two new drivers.
For an experienced man and for a promising boy.
Maybe negotiations are already underway with
Nico Hülkenberg
. ”The Emmerich man recently
drew attention to himself
as a substitute driver for
Racing Point
with good performances.
So will you soon see him again in
Formula 1
?
And possibly even with
Mick Schumacher
as a partner?
It would be the sensation that all German fans want.
The daily business of Formula 1 continues with the Italian Grand Prix.
There is no improvement in sight for Ferrari - Sebastian Vettel can only laugh at his team.
A former Ferrari boss spoke out in favor of Vettel * and sharply criticized the Italians.
Mick Schumacher: soon in Formula 1?
Positive signals from Alfa Romeo
Update from August 29, 12:05 p.m.:
Mick Schumacher has been
driving a solid second
Formula 2 season
so far
, which of course has a special star because of the corona pandemic.
The year may
even
end for the
son of the F1 record world champion Michael Schumacher
in a cockpit of the “premier class”.
Above all, Frédéric Vasseur gives hope.
The French team boss of the
Alfa Romeo
team, which emerged from the Sauber racing team,
praised the “very high level” of Formula 2 on the sidelines of the Belgian Grand Prix at “Sky”, in which “five or six drivers” could win races: “ Mick is doing a good job, he will have the opportunity to try out
Formula 1 maybe before the end of the season
.
Then we'll see. "
If you take Vasseur's statement literally, Schumacher Junior would have to sit in the cockpit of an Alfa Romeo at one of the Friday sessions of the season.
The
last Scuderia World Champion,
Kimi Räikkönen
, and
Antonio Giovinazzi
, the only Italian in the field,
are currently driving
for the
Ferrari customer team
.
Like two of his biggest F2 competitors - the Brit
Callum Ilott
and Prema team-mate
Robert Shwartzman
from Russia are currently in first and second place in the drivers' championship -
Mick is
part of Ferrari's junior program.

Mick Schumacher
.
In 1️⃣0️⃣ days we'll be racing around the Red Bull Ring in Austria, which is quite a short track only consisting of 1️⃣0️⃣ corners.
