Hakkinen: Mick Schumacher still has a chance in Formula 1
Two-time world champion Mika Hakkinen said on Sport1 that Mick Schumacher's career in Formula 1 can be continued.
Mika Hakkinen: "Mick has experience in Formula 1 and other series, but he is relatively young – it all works for him.
It's not easy to succeed in Formula 1. A few mistakes and accidents can ruin everything. Teams don't like spending a lot of money on repairing your car.
Mick has had several incidents that have damaged his career, but he still has a chance. The door is open. You just need to find the right people to talk to.
When I was a Formula 1 driver, I also took risks and sometimes got into accidents. But the leadership of the team was on my side. The rider must take risks to get the most out of the car. At that time, the team didn't ask me to drive slowly and take care of the car until the finish. They told me to step on the gas!
Things are different in Formula 1 now, with a different budget and not many available funds. The money you spend on repairs cannot be spent on further development of the car."
