“Based on performance, not on marketing” - Helmut Marko hits back at Ralf Schumacher over Mick
Schumacher stated that Marko opted for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nyck de Vries over his nephew - 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Mick Schumacher - for “personal reasons”.
“It seems that Helmut Ma🌃rko has a problem with the Schumacher name,” he said.
“Even though I have a good exchange with him personally, it seems he has some problem with Mick because otherwise, it’s not understandabl𝔍e to me why it didn’t work out from the beginning.
“To be honest, I don’t see anyone else in the squad whoꩵ would fit in there at the moment. “That’s why I’m su♊rprised by what Dr. Helmut Marko is doing.”
Mick was dropped by Haas at the end 𒁃of 2022, leaving him without a drive.
AlphaTauri was a potential option but with de Vries starring in his one-off outing with Williams at Monza, he got the🍒 nod.
As a result, Mick joined Mercedes as their third driver for F1 2023.
“I have no problem with the name Schumacher,” Marko told oe24. “For me Michael Schumacher is the greatest.
“I talk to Ralf regularly. But he is confusing one thi🤪ng: our F1 programmeও is based on performance, not on marketing.”
It’s unsure whether Mick will rejoin the g🌱rid in 2024, with Williams seemingly his only option for next year.
