Schumacher looking for revival
2024 will be a pivotal year for Mick Schumacher. Even if the German driver will still be excluded from Formula 1, he will at least this time have the opportunity to compete and prove to the Circus that they were wrong about him.
The Endurance adventure with Alpine represents a great opportunity, and the son of art does not intend to miss it. Even Bernie is rooting for him Ecclestone: the former owner of Formula 1, who saw his father Michael's sporting exploits up close, believes that Mick did not have the time he deserved in the two-year period at Haas under the management of former team principal Günther Steiner.
Ecclestone's words
“Mick got lost on the wrong team with the wrong people. At Haas they took his name. They never cared about how good or bad he was“, these are his words to Bild.
In 2024, Schumacher will be involved not only in Endurance but also in the Mercedes F1 program in the role of third driver: he will be ready if Lewis Hamilton or George Russell are unable to race. The German, in view of a permanent return to F1, has framed 2025 as well as many other “excluded”, also because many of the current drivers' contracts expire in 2024.
