With F1’s seven time world champion now retired, the only ‘Schumacher’ on the grid is 31-year-old Ralf.
But the Cologne based newspaper Express is already holding out hope that another relative of Michael Schumacher could one day be destined for formula one — the German’s 7-year-old son.
“Mick is already super-quick in a go-kart,” said Schumacher’s sponsor from his junior days in formulas Ford and Konig, Jurgen Dilk.
Germany’s TV commentator for RTL, Kai Ebel, speculated: “Michael would be manager, Mick the racer. And then everything starts again!”
Just last year, however, Schumacher shuddered at the thought of a pack of pressmen around his son.
“Think about the pressure he would have to put up with to get out of my shadow,” he said.
