Mick Schumacher can hardly contain fury after Lewis Hamilton duel amid potential penalty

Mick Schumacher fought back his anger with his Haas bosses after he was denied the chance to pass teammate Kevin Magnussen during the Austrian Grand Prix Sprint Race.

The German, 23, appeared to be running faster than Magnussen, 29, during Saturday afternoon's Sprint and did a fine job frustrating Lewis Hamilton, who was aiming to pass both Haas cars. However, team bosses chose not to switch the pair and Schumacher was ultimately passed by Hamilton's Mercedes.

The Brit, 37, did not have the chance to overtake Magnussen due to Schumacher's stoic defence and will start Sunday's Grand Prix from eighth on the grid, between the two Haas drivers. But Schumacher was visibly angry in his post-race interview, believing Magnussen should have been the man to hold off Hamilton.
