Formula 1 in the live ticker: Schumacher with huge bad luck - weather chaos causes training cancellation

4.10 p.m.:

And now the great news!

Today's Friday training session is completely canceled.

The conditions on the track make racing impossible.

The main fault is not the water on the route, but the rescue helicopter.

It could take off without any problems in an emergency, but landing at Koblenz hospital is not possible due to the visibility.

Therefore, the race management takes the only possible consequence - there will be no Friday training at the Grand Prix of the Eifel.

3:50 p.m.:

The weather at the Nürburgring is not getting any better.

The second training session will also be postponed, as the race management announced.

The further process is completely unclear - a chaos weekend is imminent.

More information will follow!

12.08 p.m.:

UN-BELIEVE-LICH!

The pit lane does not open.

This means that the first free practice session will be canceled.

So there is no opportunity for

to sit

in the

.

In the second free practice, he is not allowed to start, as team boss

told Sky.

Will he get another chance later this season?

The French didn't want to talk about that.

In general, he

is an option

for

in the coming season.

Formula 1: Grand Prix of the Eifel - chaos during the first free practice

11:59 a.m.:

Nothing new from the Eifel.

The first free practice ticks down mercilessly.

And Mick Schumacher is not allowed to get into his Alfa Romeo cockpit.

11.38 a.m.:

That's it - the free practice is postponed by 30 minutes.

But if you look at the fog in the Eifel, the situation will probably not improve anytime soon.

Mick Schumacher's big dream has been postponed.

And it is - unfortunately - quite possible that the first free practice session will not take place at all.

So that means for Mick that he won't get into the cockpit.

Update from October 9, 11:31 a.m.:

It looks like the first free practice session will initially be postponed by half an hour.

Update from October 9, 11:19 a.m.:

Really bitter for

!

The free practice could not start because of the difficult weather.

But the clock is ticking, at 12.30 p.m. the session is definitely over.

But nobody is allowed on the track yet - does that mean that Schumacher has to postpone his F1 debut after all?

The big problem is the fog: The helicopter cannot take off and in an emergency it would not be able to fly to a hospital.

That's why everything is delayed here at the Nürburgring, safety comes first.

Really bitter for Mick Schumacher when you can't go out because of the rain.

Wait and see how the decision is made!

His job will be to collect as much data as possible for the team.

Because the Nürburgring has not been driven for seven years - it is therefore completely unclear how the 2020 cars will behave on the track.

Then there is the cold weather, it should be wet.

Long-time Mercedes * team boss

praised Mick Schumacher for being a "perfect driver".

It is considered likely that the 21-year-old will get a permanent Formula 1 cockpit in the next season.

Alfa Romeo is the favorite.

A seat has already been cast for him - and both drivers do not yet have a contract for next year.

Will the signature follow soon?
