F1 team boss explains
“On our list”: Hope for Mick Schumacher
Mick Schumacher can continue to hope for a regular seat in Formula 1. As Audi's neo-team boss Mattia Binotto explained, he has the German on his list as a potential team-mate for Nico Hülkenberg.
"I know him very well from the Ferrari academy. I know how strong he can be. He is on our list," the Italian assured in the Sky interview. However, there are also many other names on the list.
Long-term solution
However, it will probably be another week or two before a final decision is announced. "I've only been here a few weeks and need to understand, look around, listen. We have to make the right decision for Audi - not just in the short term, but also in the long term."
Schumacher, who raced for the Haas team in the "premier class" from 2021 to 2022, is currently working in Alpine's endurance program and as a substitute driver for Mercedes. However, as he has repeatedly made clear, returning as a regular Formula 1 driver remains the 25-year-old's main goal.
Will he get his wish at Sauber/Audi? With Nico Hülkenberg, the racing team has already allocated a cockpit for the coming season. Should Mick follow him, he would meet the man who took the Haas cockpit from him in 2023.
