Schumacher’s son gets ‘dream’ first F1 spot with Haas

In this file photo taken on August 4, 2019 Prema Racing's German driver Mick Schumacher celebrates after winning the Formula Two championship race of the Hungarian Grand Prix at the Hungaroring circuit in Mogyorod near Budapest. Mick Schumacher, the son of seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, will drive in Formula One for the first time with Haas next season, the team announced on December 2, 2020, leaving their new recruit "emotionally exploding" at the realisation of a dream.(ANDREJ ISAKOVIC / AFP) "It's incredible and it definitely hasn't sunk in yet," the 21-year-old said in a press conference.

Haas will be counting on their 2021 pairing to prove their mettle on the track after Grosjean and Magnussen's frugal haul of just three points between them this campaign with two races to go.

He will get a taste of what is needed at the elite level when he takes part in Haas' free practice ahead of the 2020 season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on December 11 before participating in testing a few days later. Confirming the news 24 hours after Mazepin's appointment, Haas announced that they had signed Schumacher "in a multi-year agreement". "This is definitely a new challenge," Schumacher added. "I look forward to finding out what it's like -- how to improve and develop a car …
