Motorcycle racing legend Mick,ജ 59, is now the proud father of a Formula 1 dr🔥iver.
The MotoGP community has come together to🧜 congratulate tꦐhe delighted father and son.
Fellow Australian Remy Gardner, Fabio Quartararo, Loris Capirossi, Dani Pedrosa, Fabio di Giannantonio and Raul Fernandez were among the names to ▨send their best wishes to Doohan senior and junior.
Mick's iconic run of fivಌe consecutivಞe 500cc world championships earned him entry to the history books.
Mick also tested a Williams F1 c🐻ar ꦦin 1998, and was close friends with Michael Schumacher.
Schumacher naming his own son 'Mick' was a tribute to his admiration for Mick Doo💫han.
Doohan is now more frequently a fixture in the F1 paddock than the Mo♈toGP paddock, as he overꦆsees his son's rise.
Jack h♌as been a reserve and test driver for Alpine for the past two seasons, and has raced in Formula 2.
But he has beaten off competition from Mick Schumacher, amo♛ng 🍰others, to secure a full-time F1 seat in 2025 with Alpine.
The remar🐽kable racing prowess of Doohan will now include a new chapter on four wheels via his son Jack.
