German racing driver Mick Schumacher, a former Formula 1 pilot, spoke about his potential return in an interview with Speedweek.com.
The 25-year-old son of seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, who is known as the "The Red Baron," competed in two seasons of Formula 1, driving for the American team Haas from 2021 to 2022. In the 2024 season, Schumacher took part in the Alpine team, participating in the hypercar program in the World Endurance Championship (WEC). By the end of the season, he finished 22nd in the standings, earning a total of 21 points over eight races.
As I’ve said in interviews before, I feel like I have what it takes for F1. We’ll see what happens; the year is still long, and my goal is to return in 2026. We’ll see what unfolds. At this point, everything is an option.
On October 4, 2024, Helmut Marko, a consultant for the Austrian team Oracle Red Bull Racing, commented to F1News that Mick Schumacher's Formula 1 career could end if he does not move to the Swiss team Kick Sauber. Later, on November 28, it was announced that Schumacher, serving as a reserve driver, ended his collaboration with the Mercedes team.
