Mick Schumacher has named one of the traits from George Russell andLewis Hamilton that he has taken while on the sidelines. The Germanwas out of a drive when Haas elected to replace him with fellowcompatriot Nico Hulkenberg for the 2023 season, with Schumachermaking the switch to Mercedes as their reserve driver. From therehe earned high praise from Team Principal Toto Wolff, who believeshe brings a "tremendous advantage" while being in the simulator andhelping out with car development . Schumacher: Lewis and George setthe bar When asked about what he thinks he has learned most whilebeing on the sidelines, Schumacher told media, includingRacingNews365 : "I know as a driver now, much more what I want frommy team around me. "From what I feel like, but also what I'm worthand what I can bring to the team. "Obviously, going into my firstyear in Formula 1, it's kind of hard to know exactly what should bemy position and how far can I go with my comments and everything."Having worked with Lewis and George for one year now, I kind ofknow how high this bar set and how far I can go. So I think I haveno problem with sharing my information in the future." Schumacherwill contest the World Endurance Championship for the 2024 seasonwith Alpine as part of their Hypercar lineup, something which drewcomparisons to his father Michael Schumacher. The seven-time F1World Champion also raced in sports cars during his career,contesting the World Sportscar Championship in 1991 forSauber-Mercedes. "I always found there was a lot of coincidences,which kind of seemed similar to my dad's career," said Schumacher."Obviously now I'm going back to sports cars myself, I think thatit's an interesting chapter from my side for my career."
