Mick Schumacher starts his Formula 1 career this weekend in Bahrain as a rookie like no other. And as Michael Schumacher’s son, Mick will have the eyes of the world on him this year like perhaps no other debutant in F1 ever has before. I am happy to be here; I am happy to have brought back the Schumacher name into F1. Ferrari, the team with whom Michael achieved most of his successes, have said their intention is for Mick eventually to race one of their cars. It will be harder for Mick to do the same, just because of the team he is racing for.
