How’s Mick doing this season?

Schumacher Jr entered the grid this season with a lot of hope, as he won the F2 championship the year before. However, things haven’t quite gone his way so far but he hopes to find his form and pick some much-needed points for Haas.

As of now, the rookie driver has been finishing outside the top-10; his best result so far was at Hungary, where he placed twelfth. Having a difficult start to the second half of the season at Spa where he placed sixteenth in the odd race at the Belgian Grand Prix. He hopes to come back stronger for the race at Zandvoort.

The 22-year-old hopes to extract the most out of the Ferrari-powered car, and bring some crucial points for the Banbury-based team. With the upcoming race in just a few days in the Netherlands, Schumacher Jr aims to have a successful weekend.
