Twitter reacts to Schumi Jr’s censoring

The quality censorship had the German trending on the social media site. But in case you missed it, prepare to go “aww!”

The internet was quick to fawn over the Haas driver.

Is this going to be a part of the new F1 lingo? Put it in the hall of fame with Smooth operator and it’s Friday then!

Some compared the Haas rookie to his peer in AlphaTauri. While Yuki Tsunoda is known for his heated team radios, Schumacher’s beeping was a stark contrast. Further, Schumacher fans compared him to his mentor and best friend – Sebastian Vettel. Seb too was close to making it to the next level in Q2; his “no f*cking way” reaction being just as sweet.

Mick Schumacher looks to be giving the McLaren drivers a run for their money. Daniel Ricciardo, also alluded to as the golden retriever of the grid, seems to be losing his title.

Mick Schumacher explains beeping

The German had an impressive qualifying session at Sochi. In addition to coming close to a Q2 appearance, he out-qualified his teammate by 3.9 seconds. Therefore, his frustrations on missing out on a better starting position are more than justified.

Mick Schumacher will start the Russian GP in 16th, which means he will have Max Verstappen behind him yet again. The Hungarian GP gave Schumacher the opportunity to defend against the champion; a task he executed wonderfully for almost 10 laps. Sunday’s race presents itself as another chance for the driver.
