After months of speculation, it’s finally been confirmed: Mick Schumacher will not race for Haas in 2023, with Nico Hulkenberg making a full-time return to Formula 1 in his place.
It’s a decision that’s been a long time coming given Hulkeberg was first linked to the seat in early September. Eponymous team owner Gene Haas and Guenther Steiner gave Schumacher every chance to prove himself, but ultimately decided not to keep him both for on and off-track reasons.
The second Haas seat alongside Kevin Magnussen was the last vacancy on the 2023 grid, meaning the full line-up for next season is in place.

Hilarious in regards to podium-stats, thatHaas now have the fastest F1 driver (rookie) to land a Podium with Magnussen and the oppesit with Hulkenberg. Magnussen got P2 at his very first race in Melbourne.

@Ballacha Год назад

that's puts you in perspective how important it is to be a stable driver. a glimpse of raw pace doesn't pay the bill of destoyed cars. if you look at the rookie this season, Zhou Guanyu isn't the fastest rookie in recent years by any stretch of the imagination. but he scored points multiple times while making less unforced errors than 90% of rookies in recent years. and AR extended his contract with 1/3 of the season left. you can clearly see what kind of driver the teams want by examining the case of Mick and Guanyu.

@@mrgforces honestly i wouldn't call him underrated overall. i mean he did change pretty much everyone's mind just after a few races. but his ability to push the car and not make it spin is indeed not very common in a rookie. usually his race pace is good during the first stint and slowly falls away after the first pit. he can be an ocon level driver as soon as next year once he gets more experience on management of tyre, battery charge etc. and frankly AR owes him a lot of track time.

@frederikskinderholm3956 Год назад

I do think Mick's problem has always been that he has been kinda slow getting up to speed in new machinery, for instance his rookie season in F2 he was really nowhere at all finishing 150 points behind Latifi (which is a red flag in it self). Even in his Championship season he had a slow start, and barely beat Tsunoda who was a rookie. Then this year he was also rather slow in the first half of the season, which is a big blow to Haas as the car in the beginning had potential for top 10 every weekend. And with how much the cars change being slow to adapt is not a trait any F1 driver should have. No matter how big potential they got. And personally i dont think that Mick has potential to be a Norris, Lerclerc, Russel or Verstappen.

Just a terrible team. They have a clown as a head of the team and they constantly blame their drivers for their own incapability, because they can't build a decent car to get in that p5-p8 range in years. They celebrated Magnussen's pole, like he won a championship and in the end ended with 1 point from the sprit. And that point was pure luck. Mick did have his crashes and that is valid. But they have screwed his race multiple times. At least 5-6 times this year I thought "Hey, look at Mick at 9th or 10th place, even after the tyre change, looking pretty good" and somehow he finishes the race only in front of Latifi...idiots.

The problem at Haas isn't Schumacher. It's Steiner. He's not been able to lift any outfit he has been a team boss of above 5th and has consistently had them underperforming and finished typically 7th or 8th. He's also been counter productive in trying to develop driving talent while also giving preference to mediocre/over the hill drivers. This is evident in his time at Jaguar when he didn't sign Dario Franchitti and slogged off Justin Wilson in favor of the mediocre line up of a middling Pedro De La Rosa and a past his prime Eddie Irvine.

Haas is a team where F1 careers go to die. From Schumacher to Grosjean, hell, even Magnussen would be out of F1 if it wasn't for them having to replace Mazepin at the beginning of the season. A bad owner who doesn't want to invest money into the sport, a team principal who can't keep his mouth shut when he needs to and in consequence creates a toxic working environment for everyone around him (as much as Steiner is a good personality for the sport, his abilities as team principal are rather suboptimal), and ready is the concoction that is Haas F1. I've seen a great analogy today, I'll just copy it here: "Haas is like that first real job out of college where it's the first time you're earning big-boy money and have a nice job title. Except you find out that the work culture is hell, pay is bad and there's no professional development. There's no career advancement if you stay and the company lurches from crisis to crisis because they don't have a solid foundation to stand on." Case in point, the sooner Gene sells the team to anybody who actually wants to do anything of substance in the sport, the better.

@liukin95 Год назад

I always thought Haas was never going to extract the potential in rookie drivers. Steiner, as much as fans love him, is a piece of work and isn't the easiest TP to work under. I do believe Mick has been linked to Audi since they revealed their plans to buy Sauber, and giving Mick's links to Alfa Romeo in the past I can definitely see him taking a reserve drive or a future seat there before Audi take over. Audi have said they want a German driver when they enter the F1 grid, so leaving Haas could be a good thing for Mick imo.

Let’s be real about Haas. The car was competitive before the other teams started upgrading their cars. After the upgrades came in Haas no longer had a competition car. Non competitive car equals poor results no matter the driver behind the wheel. This was reflected in the Brazilian sprint race, look at how Magnussen went from 1st to 8th. That was a reality check. Haas need more investors so they can spend money making a better car. I would prioritize that over getting more experienced drivers.

There have been big points deltas between some teammates this year. Vettel and Norris have outscored Stroll and Ricciardo 3:1 and Bottas' points per race is 8:1 against Zhou. By that measure Mick hasn't at all been the worst, (though it is worth remembering that's slightly skewed by KMag throwing away some extremely lucrative points positions with silly incidents) but with Ferrari withdrawing their backing this was inevitable regardless of the performance or repair bills.

Haas was the worst thing that could have happened to Schumacher. Last year was just a waste for everyone involved with Haas and this year, he had a lot of great drives, that nobody noticed because they completely fucked up the strategy or simply had a bad car that weekend. Just take this video as an example. The Interlagos quali wasn't because he was too conservative, but because they fucked up his out lap, putting him into the middle of traffic, not allowing him to get any heat into the tires. Obviously you don't notice any of this if you don't keep an eye on what is happening with his races, however if you were, you would be aware that he was clearly outperforming K-Mag on sundays. But I'm glad they hired Hulk. At least Gene Haas can't ruin his career.

@Yankee1003 Год назад

100% true. He had to let two drivers pass in the last corners and had to go into the wet. Tire temperature was gone at this moment and nothing he can do. I think Mick was not treated the same as Magnussen was treated. Much more pressure on him from Haas side / Günther Steiner but still looking for driver faults only. H2H races is clearly in favor of Mick - is Haas not wondering why he hasn't more points than Kevin? The car was not competitve for like 12 races to earn points.

Mick is like a fresh graduate that has a lot of potential but his first company is paired with a lousy coworker (Mazespin) and a shouting boss. Not to mention not having his dad to be there with him and the only solace he could get is with Seb for the time being. I feel bad for Mick, I really do.

At the end of the day it's very easy to look at the standings and see Mick has done nothing this season, but when you look at races where him and Magnussen are in the points and suddenly they both finish 14th and 15th, shows Haas needs to change internally if they want to be a consistent point-scoring midfield team.
