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.
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.
There’s a lot which hasn’t been seen yet, especially from a driving point of view,” Schumacher said.
“It’s never been a secret, my goal is to be back on the grid. I’ve shown in multiple ways that I am capable of winning championships. It’s just a matter of it fitting into somebody’s schedule, does it fit into their plan?
understand how I could have improved [at Haas], and there’s a lot more to show from my side. It’s all about, what do you want in your team right now? Do you want somebody who you can build a team around? Good for marketing? Purely shut up and drive? There are so many different types of drivers.
