German Haas driver Mick Schumacher may continue his career at Mercedes, reports Auto Motor und Sport.
According to the source, Schumacher may take the place of a reserve pilot in the new team. It is noted that this is likely to happen if the Australian Daniel Ricciardo, currently playing for McLaren, refuses to go to Mercedes.
According to analysts of the publication, the cooperation of Schumacher and Mercedes would be beneficial for both sides. The team would have signed a promising young pilot, and the athlete himself could get a wider experience than in the Haas.
Mick Schumacher is the son of seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher. The 23-year-old driver made his Formula One debut in 2021. This season, with two stages before the end of the championship, he ranks 17th in the individual standings with 12 points.
