Toto Wolff has told Mick Schumacher to follow the example set by Nyck de Vries as he bids to get his Formula 1 career back on the right track.
The German's entry into the sport came with much fanfare, given his surname and the fact he had won the Formula 2 championship. But Schumacher's Haas stint lasted for just two years, a first in which his car was entirely uncompetitive and a second in which it was deemed he hadn't proven himself enough.
After Haas chose to replace him with Nico Hulkenberg, Schumacher was left without a race seat for the upcoming season, So he has signed as a reserve with Mercedes to keep his foot in the door for the time being and hope for future opportunities.
