Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel proved a winning combination at the Race of Champions six times in the past. Now it’s time for a new generation, as Michael’s son Mick Schumacher teams up with Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel. European Formula 3 champion Mick Schumacher will team up with Sebastian Vettel for Germany at the Race of Champions event in Mexico today, as the pairing restores one of the most successful combos in the event’s history: Vettel and Mick’s father Michael Schumacher won the Nations Cup trophy for Team Germany six times in a row, from 2007 to 2012.
Ahead of the event, Mick said that he already got advices from Sebastian Vettel: “It’s great to fight alongside Sebastian here. He has already given me advices, so I think we are a great team. We are also quite competitive, so we want to get as far as possible in the Nations Cup!”
Scuderia Ferrari’s German driver did not take place in Friday’s practice session for the 2019 Race of Champions. The four-time Formula One world champions arrives on Saturday and in the morning, he’ll have a special opportunity to test the car (because he missed practice) before the 2019 Race of Champions officially starts.
