‘With Michael Schumacher by his side, Mick Schumacher would be in a F1 good team’ - Bernie Ecclestone
After two years with Haas, Schumacher was dropped by the American outfit for this season, with the team opting for more experienced German driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Hulkenberg.
With no seats available on the F1 2023 grid, Schumacher will be Mercedes’ third driver, acting as a substitute for either 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton or 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell should either not be able to race.
Since Michael’s skiing accident in 2013, there has been very limited details reꦛleased about his condition, and thus how involved he has been in Mick’s career since then.
Ecclestone - 🐈who ran F1 for over 40 years up until 2017 - believes Mick is missing his father’s advice and experience.
"With Michael as a consultant at his side, Mick would be a regular driver in the cockpit of a good team,” Ecclestone told Sport Bild.
“With all his experience, Michael could ha♏ve given his son 🤡so many details. He would have shown him the right way, in terms of driving, but also politically.”
Eccꦆlestone also thinks Schumacher made a wrong call to opt for the Ferrari driver academy, rather than Red Bull’s.
Red Bull have a long🧸 history of nurturing talent through their academy and their sister team, AlphaTauri (previously Toro Rosso🅷).
"He was on the wrong team,” he aඣdded. “Red Bull would have been better for him," he said. "There they would have cared more fo🗹r him and built him up.
"The burden of his name is heavy. Living up to its name is its biggest problem. It will be difficult for him to find a cockpit. Especial🐓ly one in which he can win. I'm sorry!"
