Nico Hulkenberg will replace Mick Schumacher at de Haas next season. US team head Gunther Steiner said Ferrari protégé Antonio Giovinazzi was also considered one of the contenders to replace Schumacher.
“Antonio topped the list of race candidates,” Racingnews365 quoted Günther Steiner as saying. – As you know, we made a different decision, which we think is best for the team.
Of course everyone has their own opinion about this or that rider, but we did what we wanted by choosing someone who can lead the team forward. Niko was the best option for us.”
Antonio Giovinazzi made his F1 debut in 2017, driving two laps for Sauber. After that, the Italian driver spent three full seasons – from 2019 to 2021 – with Alfa Romeo. His best result was fifth place in Brazil in 2019. In 2022, Antonio took part in two training sessions with Haas in Monza and Austin.
