Mick Schumacher endures more hairy moments in Macau Grand Prix, but it’s all part of the learning curve
The 18-year-old son of Formula One legend Michael Schumacher continues to get to grips with tricky Guia Circuit after a wheel lock in qualifying forces him off track
The 18-year-old German is less taking everything in on his first trip to the Suncity Group Formula Three Macau Grand Prix – FIA F3 World Cup and more soaking up every single moment of this unique experience.
And our eyes have followed the young man’s every movement too.
Schumacher has brought his famous name to Macau – his father Michael won here in 1990 on the way claiming seven Formula One world titles; uncle Ralph won in 1995 before winning six Formula One Grands Prix – and he has been trying to quietly go about his business, despite the interest that will always follow him around.
