Mick Schumacher will not be the most impressive rookie in Formula 1 this year, according to former team owner and boss Giancarlo Minardi. “Sure, his car is also a lot better than Schumacher’s, but I also just think that Tsunoda is generally a better driver,” the 73-year-old Italian said. Last week, Red Bull supremo Dr Helmut Marko said Tsunoda would have beaten Schumacher to the 2020 Formula 2 title if not for his technical problems. “In Formula 2, Tsunoda started around the midfield but he became one of the best drivers,” he said. They are people who are so very modest, but with Tsunoda you can see that he is also extremely determined and super fast.”.
