Did Haas’ warning for Mick Schumacher not to crash come back to bite?With his race seat on the line and well aware that one more crash could end his career, Mick Schumacher was overly cautious in Friday’s qualifying in Brazil.While his team-mate Kevin Magnussen, assured of a 2023 Haas race seat,at the Interlagos circuit, Schumacher found himself at the opposite end down in 20th position.
Schumacher was one of the last to make the switch and got caught out in traffic forcing him to leave the racing line to make way for Esteban Ocon and Sebastian Vettel.“I had to drive into the wet in my out-lap to let Esteban and Sebastian pass on their fast laps,” he told F1-Insider. And Schumacher is well aware of what a lack of feeling on a damp track can cost him, the driver aquaplaning off the track and into the barrier in the opening practice session at the Japanese Grand Prix.“Disappointing” said Guenther SteinerHe estimated the crash damage was “half a million dollars”, that’s to go with the million from Jeddah and the other million from Monaco.
“Mick has to try make as much as possible of this situation,” the Italian said. “When he went out, he was maybe a bit hesitant on slick tyres.”At a time when he is fighting not only for his race seat but his Formula 1 career as a whole, Schumacher has not heard a word of encouragement from Steiner and co – at least not publicly.
