After being champion of the formula 2 in 2020, Mick Schumacherson of the seven-time world champion of Formula 1began his adventure in the premier class at the hands of Haas.
In the American team he only spent two years in which he first shared a team with Nikita Mazepin and then with Kevin Magnussen.
Its repeated accidents and the high cost it entailed for a small team that found itself without Russian capital after the departure of the controversial Muscovite triggered his departure from Haas at the end of 2022.
It was at that moment when he announced his signing for Mercedes as reserve pilot of lewis hamilton and George Russell.
Well then, the head of the star team, Toto Wolffhas charged against his counterpart in Haas, Guenther Steinerdue to the bad treatment that Mick Schumacher received during his time at the American team.
“I can only say that his parents they did nothing wrong raising him“, has started in statements to ‘Blick’.
“And I affirm that if Michael had accompanied his son during the two years of Haas, Steiner would not have dared to treat Mick like this“, has added.
Wolff affirms that he has full confidence in the German: “If one of our pilots is injured or catches covid, Mick will be in the Mercedes“.
In fact, he wants him to do a test soon to gain shooting: “We are trying to have an old car ready for him as soon as possible.”
