Schumacher slammed into the barriers at the very end of a wet first practice at the Japanese Grand Prix when he lost control of his Haas during ꧅an in-lap following a practice start. 

The impact caused significant damage to the front of his car, requiring a chassis change that meant Schumacher was 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:unable to take part in FP2. 

It was bad timing for Schumacher, with the German in real danger of losing his Haas seat to 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Nico Hulkenberg for F1 2023. 

“It’s disappointing because w♊e just went out to do a race start♋ so we get data for Sunday,” Steiner told F1TV

“And then on the way in from the race start Mick crashed the car, aquaplaned and crashed into the barrier and da⭕maged the c🌞ar quite heavily.

“The whole front is broken but we also have to change the whole chassis because we’re not sure if there is a crack i😼n it or not and you cannot take any risks with the chassis.

“There is nothing changed in any way, except that maybe we could have gone o🦋ut in FP2🐈 for 10 minutes, but that is not important. 

“It’s b✅etter to be 100% safe that the car is in a good shape tomorrow. So we have to change the chassis and the whole front end and the front wing an🎃d the nose.” 

That’s not good. Mick loses control of the car and hits the barriers, on his way back to the pits after the session has finished.

He’s out of the car and ok.

Haas have already 📖had to change Schumacher’s chassis on two occasions this year following huge crashes in Saudi Aꦺrabia and Monaco. 

“It’s the third time now𝓀 that we have potential chassis damage,” Steiner said. 

“I sa𝕴y potential b🌸ecause we need to X-ray it and see if it is cracked or not. But it is quite frustrating.”

But Steiner confirmed Schumac🐼her’s car will be fixed in time for FP3 on Saturday morning. 

“Tomorrow morning the ♚car w📖ill be there,” he added. 

“The guys will have a late even🌱ing but they will fix the car again and we have got all the parts, that is n☂ot an issue. So it will be there.”
