Mick Schumacher has key decision to make as German's Mercedes predecessor gives view

Mick Schumacher must decide what he wants for his racing career to avoid it stalling for too long.

That is the view of the man who previously filled the German's new role in Formula 1. Axed by Haas after just two seasons with a race seat, Schumacher is now a reserve driver for Mercedes and will be worried over his future in the top single-seater category.

At Mercedes, the 23-year-old's role will be to help the team to develop the car through simulator work as well as help with other tasks. The only way he will get a chance to race in F1 this year is if either Lewis Hamilton or George Russell is forced to skip a race weekend for any reason.
