Lewis Hamilton on Mick Schumacher as third driver: “His father Michael and Mercedes closely connected”

Mick Schumacher was ditched by Haas and lost his place in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2023 F1 driver line-up but has taken up a role as a third driver with🌞 Mercedes.
His legendary father Michael ended his career with Mercedes, paving the way for Hamilton’s incred♊ibl𒆙e success with the team.
“You don't work so closely with the third driver anymore,” Hamilton told Bild about ⛄Mick joining Mercedes.
“It's a lot of simulator work and not ꧃like it ওused to be, even though we'll still be teammates.
“Mick is a great talent. He is aꦆn asset for Mercedes. He is a German driver.
“His father Mich𒐪ael and Mercedes were already closely connected.”
Michael a꧟ndඣ Hamilton share the all-time F1 record for the most championships (seven).

Hamilton, now 37, knows time is running out to claim that record outright, particularly with the dominant 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen intent on making his꧒ own mark in the history books.
Both Mercedes and Red Bull have added high-profile third drivers - Mick joining Hamilton’s ranks, and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Daniel Ricciardo joining Verstappen’s team.
This year, much will depend on Hamilton and Verstappen༒’s rela൩tionship with their teammates.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez and Verstappen had a high-profile falling-out in 2022, and although everything appears rosy between Hamilton and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell, the younger driver claimed Mercedes’ only win of la꧙st year an♏d will have his own title ambitions.
