Haas are th🍌e final F1 team that still needs to decide its driver line-up for next year.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kevin Magnussen will remain with the team after signing a multi-year contract at the start of 2022 as a replacement for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Nikita Mazepin.

Schumacher’s future has been in doubt throughout the year, with current Aston Martin reserve driver 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Nico Hulkenberg understood to be Haas’ preferred choice.

Speaking to German broadcaster , Ecclestꦜone doesn’t expect Schumacher to be on the grid in 2023.

"I don't think he will be there,” he said. "People were disappointed with his performance," he said. "We don't know ൲whether it was because of him or the te💧am, but of course it's difficult to find someone to put him on a winning team. Because he's not in one at the moment.

"Maybe he needs to forget F1 and focus on the other motorsport categories. His name is his biggest burden, but he tr⛎ies to live up to it as best he can. And that's what gets𝔉 him into all his troubles. Therefore, forget it and win in another category.”

Ecclestone isn’t surprisedꦰ Haas are favouring experience over y𝓰outh and potential.

"It's not about age, but mental state," he added. "Look a🔜t Juan Manuel Fangio - he started at an age when everyone stopped long ago.”

The writing is on the wall for Schumacher after Hulkenberg said he’s “relatively optimistic” about making a returnꦚ to F1.

Hulkenberg hasn’t driven in F1ꦺ full-time since 2019, although he has🐭 consistently impressed during his one-off appearances in the subsequent years.

The German starred on his outings for Racing Point in 2020, before out-qualifying 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lance Stroll in the season-opening 2022 Bahrain Grand Prix after 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sebastian Vettel was ruled ouꦦt of the first two races with coronavi🦩rus.
