For Mick Schumacher, the best starting position of his Formula 1 career ended in disappointment. Because the German was unable to capitalize on his sixth starting position and retired with a technical defect after just 20 laps.
At the time of the retirement, he was comfortably seventh in the points and could have scored the first points of his career. But in turn eight, his Haas suddenly went on strike and Schumacher parked his car in the run-off zone, which made the virtual safety car necessary.

“Of course it’s an unpleasant feeling because we had the pace to score points. We had what it takes to drive for points today,” he explained, visibly annoyed. “I think it would have happened today,” said the Haas driver, the failure was “very annoying. Another day!”
Michael Schumacher’s son was later connected a little shorter on Twitter. He posted a picture of his race car in the evening and wrote only one word: “Gutted”, in German “disappointed”. That should sum up the mood of the Haas driver well.
The good starting positions five and six did not bring Haas luck. Because Kevin Magnussen also dropped out of the points early because he had a damaged front wing after a collision with Lewis Hamilton on the first lap and was called into the pits by race control.
