Rumors place Mick Schumacher at Alpine
In the paddock, the Silly Season continues and rumors are running rampant. Increasingly insistent rumors speak of Mick Schumacher heading towards Alpine.
We know that rumors can sometimes be unfounded or simply cause agitation. Since the Vettel and then Alonso dominos fell, the question now remains as to who will occupy the second seat at Alpine.
On the occasion of the Belgian Grand Prix, the question was asked to Esteban Ocon about his teammate preference. The Normand answered: “I have no preference as long as he is competitive. That is the most important thing. I hope it will be Mick, as we are good friends.”
Such a situation would recall the career of Michael, his dad: he had gone through Enstone at the beginning of his career, in 1991, during the Benetton era.
This possibility also raises the question of Théo Pourchaire’s future, who could have benefited from a good position to start in F1. Announcements could be made in the coming days. As they say, there’s no smoke without fire!
