Wolff & Horner To Save German Grand Prix

Moreover, Sebastian Vettel & Mick Schumacher are the only two German drivers in the driver’s line. And Vettel has already announced his retirement. Therefore, Mick will be the last German F1 driver until someone from the same nationality joins. However, Christian Horner has shown his concern about the lack of the German market in motorsport. As the Red Bull boss stated, “Germany is an important market for us and Max Verstappen shows what enthusiasm a driver can generate in a country. It’s certainly comparable to Schumacher in Germany.” 

Horner added that it would be very unusual and awkward after all those years with Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel. On the other hand, Mercedes boss Toto Wolff also emphasized the importance of having a German driver on the grid. The German car principal said, “We need a German driver, and I would also like a race in Germany. We absolutely have to find a solution to that.” 

Lately, rumors have been spinning that Haas driver Mick Schumacher will be devoid of a seat in the 2023 season. And if that happens, Formula One will not have even a single driver on the grid. In that regard, Wolff insisted that the 23- year old driver deserves to keep his seat for 2023. He reckoned that Mick has a great personality and is talented and fast. It’s just that he needs more time to get used to the motorsport.
