Like Father Like Son: Mick, Son Of Michael Schumacher Set To Make Debut In F1

The 16-year-son of Michael Schumacher, the seven-time Formula One champion, is set to make his debut in the same sport this weekend.

Mick Schumacher will compete in the Formula 4 category, in what is regarded as a stepping stone for junior drivers hoping to reach the top.

By doing so, he will follow in the footsteps of his father – who is still recovering from a ski accident at his home in Switzerland – who won a record 91 races in Formula 1.

Three-time Formula One champion Niki Lauda said: ‘Of course, the public will be watching him, thanks to his father, and that is a huge burden for him.’

Van Amersfoot Racing team managing director told Bild: ‘We are all pleased with how things are going. Mick makes few errors.

‘The talent is there, the preparation is there, the intelligence is there.

Goodluck Mick!
