Munich/Montreal – The Canadian Grand Prix in Formula 1 is coming up – and Mick Schumacher could do something historic on the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve in Montreal!

His mother Corinna hugged Schumacher, Haas team boss Günther Steiner was very satisfied, and Ferrari also congratulated his youngster: With his by far best qualifying result in Formula 1, the 23-year-old impressively defied the increasing pressure.

Formula 1: Mick Schumacher shows his critics - Vettel with problems

“Of course it's nice to have a good result.

Something to build on.

That shows that I'm here for a good reason," said Schumacher, who was recently criticized after his serious accidents in Jeddah and Monaco.

He wants to do his "best" in the race to hold his position - after all, highly rated drivers such as George Russell (Mercedes), World Championship runner-up Sergio Perez (Red Bull) and World Championship third Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) are starting in top cars behind him.

Surprisingly, veteran Fernando Alonso is on the front row of the grid for the first time in ten years.

Ex-world champion Sebastian Vettel, on the other hand, didn't get along at all in qualifying on the slippery track in Canada.

"That can't be," radioed the native of southern Hesse to his Aston-Martin command post: "I had no grip," emphasized Vettel and reacted unmistakably annoyed: "Oh, maaaaaan."

Will it get better in the race on Sunday evening?

We'll know more from 8 p.m.
