Mick Schumacher may be wholly reliant on a contract extension from Haas as he is "not a serious option for AlphaTauri ", according to a report from Germany.
The son of seven-time world champion Michael has been with Haas for two seasons, but may not get a third. Team chief Guenther Steiner has made it clear he is thinking long and hard about who should compete alongside Kevin Magnussen next year, and that he will not be rushed into a decision.
It leaves Schumacher's Formula 1 career in jeopardy, though, with alternative options dwindling for the German. With Alfa Romeo expected to continue with Zhou Guanyu, Williams, Alpine and AlphaTauri are the only other teams still weighing up their options.
