Mick Schumacher has given his supporters a message of resilience online after missing out on a return to Formula One next year.
The German, son of seven-time F1 world champion Michael Schumacher, drove for Haas in 2021-2022 before being dropped by former team principal and Netflix star Guenther Steiner.
In the two years since, Schumacher has undertaken reserve driver duties for Mercedes but was eyeing a spot back on the grid next year.
The 25-year-old was heavily linked with the second seat at Sauber – soon-to-be Audi in 2026 – but F2 championship leader Gabriel Bortoleto has been handed that opportunity.
It means Schumacher faces another season on the sidelines, with no other realistic seats open on the grid in 2025, and he broke his silence to update fans on Instagram on Sunday.
“Life doesn’t always go as planned, and setbacks can be tough to face,’ Schumacher wrote.
‘But every challenge is a chance to learn, grow, and come back even stronger. This is just a chapter, not the whole story.
