Mick Schumacher Unimpressed With Max Verstappen Breaking His Father’s F1 Record

Time seems to be running away quick for Mick Schumacher. After a shocking decision by the Haas team which saw them prioritize Kevin Magnussen over the German, despite the Dane taking an engine penalty. He finished the race in P16, while Max Verstappen broke his father’s record of most race wins by clinching his 14th victory of the season.

Things have not exactly gone in Mick’s favor. He has been a little unfortunate in the last few races. However, he needs to find something special in the final two races of the season, if he plans on keeping that Haas seat.

Moreover, the German also commented on Max Verstappen breaking the German duo Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel’s record. Mick’s father and Seb were the joint highest race winners

Mick said, “We’re comparing 22 races with a few fewer races, so it was clear anyway that this record would be broken because the number of races went up.” 

He added, “If there are soon 24 races, it will look different again”.
