Mick Schumacher says he wants to make the step up to Formula 1 as a “complete racing driver” and is keen to avoid 🍷rushing into the sport. 

The reigning Europeanꩲ Formula 3 champion and son of seven-time F1 world champion Michael Schumacher made his F1 test debut with Ferrari in the post-Bahrain Grand Prix this week.

Schumacher is competingꦆ in Formula 2 in 2019 and sits eighth in the drivers’ championship following the opening round in Ba✅hrain after recording two top finishes, securing a best result of sixth place in the sprint race. 

The German has been tipped for a bright future, with two-time F1 world champion Fernando Alonso among those 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:predictingꦚ success fo💫r Schumacher. 

“Obviously it is my first yea🍷r in F2 so we will see how it goes,” he said. 

“I want to arrive in F1 as a complete racing driver and being as prepared as possible and I think time will tell if that is next year or the year to follꦍow. If that🦋 is next year or the years to follow it is how it goes. I am taking one step at a time.

“I came into here to have fun anꦇd to enjoy it and I did that 110%,” he added. “I guess you can see that I am smiling a lot and I enjoyed a lot, especially those last laps. 

“With full power and everything it was just amazing, a complete feeling in t🧜he car, it was just ౠamazing.” 

Schumacher was beaten to the🅠 fastest time on Tuesday by Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, before he swapped teams to drive for Alfa Romeo on the final day of running, concluding two-day test sixth in the timesheets. 

The 20-year-old⭕ believes the lessons he learned from his maiden F1 test outing will serve him well in his rookie F2 campaign.

“F1 is so complex,” Schumacher explained. “There are so many ways to see an𒉰🎉d learn about the car. To speak with them and try to take the information for myself really did help. 

“I learned so much that I can really use in F2 as well. I’ll for sure u✨se every single bit ofꦏ it.

“Every single time I went out, I learned something new. I learned something new abou♈t how to drive the car, about the feeling I had in the car, the feeling I was looking for in the car really. 

“Braking was really hard to find the limit, the limit just got further and further into the corner. I was feeling like I could have braked at the 50 metre board at Turn 1, but obviously that’s not possible🍰. 

“I was trying every run t🧔o go later and later, and it always went later. That’s why I say there is margin.” 

Schumacher revealed Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel has been providing him with♏ g☂uidance throughout the two-day test. 

“He has been very helpful, we’ve spoken about it and every tip I can get from him i💦s good,” ꦿSchumacher said.

“I will try to use them and if they work for me I will keep using them but if not I will try diffe🅺rent ones. He has been very helpful.”
