According to “Bild”, Mick Schumacher is about to leave the Formula 1 team Haas.

According to information from the newspaper on Monday, Nico Hulkenberg is about to return to the top motorsport class and replace the 23-year-old at the US racing team. Provided everything goes normally, Hulkenberg should sign his new working paper on Tuesday. The official announcement should follow in the next few days. A source did not name “image”. A request from Haas initially went unanswered.

Schumacher’s contract with the US team expires. Hülkenberg (35), who is currently the reserve driver at Aston Martin, has long been a hot candidate for the successor. “Expect the announcement sometime next week,” said Haas team boss Günther Steiner in São Paulo with a view to the season finale in Abu Dhabi. “But I won’t reveal the day because then everyone will be waiting for that day. But it will come next week.”

Haas has long since made his decision about Schumacher’s future. “Yes, that’s right,” Steiner replied at the Grand Prix in Brazil when asked whether the racing team had already chosen the teammate next to the Dane Kevin Magnussen, who was set for 2023. “We’re just sorting out the details of how we’re going to do it and what we’re going to do.”

After finishing 13th in São Paulo and a difficult second year at Haas, Schumacher admitted: “Sometimes it’s your year and sometimes it’s not. I don’t think this year was mine.”
