In the 2022 season, Mick Schumacher will combine performance for Haas with the position of reserve driver for Ferrari and, if necessary, will be poised to replace one of the key drivers of the Scuderia. The German thinks he will handle it if the team needs his services.
“Haas and Ferrari’s cars are different, they’re not exactly the same, but I’m ready to get behind the wheel,” Racingnews365 quotes Mick as saying. “I have been working with Ferrari since 2019 and I understand all their working procedures. I will be more than happy to get behind the wheel and show the team everything I can.
There’s always pressure in Formula 1. You’re only as good as how good you had the last race – I fully understand that we don’t have a chance to rest on our laurels. Always looking for an opportunity to take the next step forward – the team is constantly trying to make the car faster, be it settings or work approach. Our constant goal is to constantly improve, it gets better – this is the only way to achieve high results.”
Gunther Steiner, Mick Schumacher’s boss, is known for his direct approach to the press. Mick said Gunther doesn’t pick expressions when working with the team: “We’re all different, but Gunther has a unique way of doing things. He’s one of those people who doesn’t often filter his thoughts and say out loud what he’s thinking.
You have to get used to this. I hadn’t come across this behavior before so it was new to me. I had to adapt – I think I can do it.”
