Schumacher is currently Mercedes’ third driver - and has earned praise for his simulat🦩ion work which has aided Lewis Hamilton and George Russell - but he’s eyeing a 2024 comeback.

Vettel, who was a protege of Mick’s father Michae𒊎l Schumacher and has since taken Mick under his own wing, is sticking by him.

"The situation is difficult at the moment🎉,”🐎 Vettel told . 

“There is perhap♕s still a single cockpit and at the moment it is not that💜 easy or rather difficult to get in there and slide in. 

“But there is always some possibility.

"I think it's important that things continue in a certain way for ꧑him next year. 

“That he continues to work on the se𒅌cond chance. 

“From a German perspective it's essential, it's not just the biggest young ta♓lent, but perhaps even the only one at the moment."

The possibi🌄litie🅘s are at AlphaTauri, Alfa Romeo and Williams.

AlphaTauri brought back Daniel Ricciardo only to lose him to injury (his contract expires at the end of this season but they ar🧸e likely to want him to stay despite Liam Lawson’s emergence♑).

Alfa Ro🌜meo are reportedly pondering replacing Zhou Guanyu with Theo Pourchaire𒁃.

Logan🅘 Sargeant is under pressure at Williams after a point-less rookie sea𒆙son so far.
