Mick Schumacher has faced criticism from many sides this season, though he might have expected to get a little more support from his own uncle.
But Ralf Schumacher has been bluntly honest about his nephew's performances. Despite recent improvements, the young German is still under pressure after two hefty and expensive crashes earlier in the year, while also being outshone by Haas team-mate Kevin Magnussen.
The Dane showed up in Hungary at the weekend ready for a swathe of new upgrades on his car. Haas have been waiting a long time for this and, among other things, gave Magnussen new sidepods, bodywork and rear brake ducts to play with in Budapest.
