Mick Schumacher will hope the public criticism of his boss by his uncle will not harm his chances of keeping his Haas seat next season.
His seat is the only one on the 2023 grid which is not yet spoken for. The German may yet be handed a contract extension, but there is a chance Haas could choose to bring in fresh blood to partner Kevin Magnussen in 2023.
The man making the call is team principal Guenther Steiner, who is never afraid to speak his mind. Schumacher has been on the receiving end of his criticism in the past, and on Friday Antonio Giovinazzi was the subject of his disappointment after crashing while driving for Haas in FP1.
