168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Mick Schumacher’s outside-chance of returning to Formula 🍃1 in 2025 has ended.

He was reportedly an option for the vacant Sauber seat which has now been▨ snared by F2 talent Gabriel Bortoleto.

Sauber havꦆe confirmed that current drivers Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu will be released at the end of this season, and McLaren junior Bortoleto has been signed.

Haas’ Nico Hulkenberg had already been signed up by Sauber, giving a German presence to th൲e team who will evolve into Audi in 2026.

Audi, one of Germany’s top manufacturers, could have selected Schumacher who is th💎e son of a national icon.

But Schumacher has now seen another door slam in his face as he fails to return to the F1 grid.

He drove for Alpine in the World Endurance Championship this season but it didn’t boost him into their vacant F1 drive, whi🃏ch was instead given to rookie Jack Doohan for 2025.

Schumacher was alꦅso overlooked by Williams, whe𝓰n they needed an urgent replacement for the under-performing Logan Sargeant, despite being tipped by Toto Wolff.

Williams instead plumped for Franco Colapinto who has taken⭕ F1 by storm.

Schumacher is now set forℱ a third consecutiveဣ year away from F1 in 2025.

He was du⛦mped by Haas at the end of 2022, with then-team boss Guenther Steiner critical of the quantity of crꦑashes he had.

Haas swiftly pivoted from rookie drivers to a pair of experienced old hea☂dꦜs in Hulkenberg and Kevin Magnussen, and have seen their fortunes change this season under Ayao Komatsu’s leadership.

Schumacher has been a Mercedes reserve driver for the past two years, having retained a good relationship with thꦫe manufacturer where𝓡 his illustrious father ended his F1 career.
