Mick Schumacher has said that Lewis Hamilton’s transfer to Ferrari for 2025 has boosted his chances of returning to the grid.
The seven-time champion’s sensational move to Maranello from Mercedes has stunned the F1 world and has thrown the driver market into chaos.
With 13 drivers out of contract at the end of the year, the 2025 season could be strikingly different to the current driver lineup, which is unchanged from the end to the previous year for the first time in the sport’s history.
