The end of Mick Schumacher at Haas? Nico Hulkenberg “optimistic” about F1 return

Hulkenberg is in the frame to replace fellow German 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Mick Schumacher at Haas for F1 2023.
The current Aston Martin reserve driver hasn’t raced i♈n F1 full-time since 2019 but has reℱmained part of the F1 fold.

He drove for Racing Point during 2020 when 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll were forced to sit out due to coronaviruꦚs, impressing during his brief outings.
Hulkenberg also got a taste of 2022 machinery when he deputised for Sebastian Vettel at the opening two rounds of this year🍬.
Despite Schumacher’s improved form since the Austrian Grand Prix, Hulkenberg seems to be the favourite to take the seat alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Kevin Magnussen.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Haas owner Gene Haas hit out at Schu🍬macher for the number of big shunts he’s had this year, stating “he’s wrecked a lot of cars that have cost us a lo𒉰t of money that we just don’t have”. ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ;
Hulkenberg confirmed that talks remain ongoing with the Americ꧋an outfit.
“At the end of the day, it’s not my decision. I’m not making it,” Hulkenberg told Austrian broadcaster ServusTV.
“There are still talks. I am relatively optimistic, but we will🅷 have to be patient a little longer.”

Another hint that Hulkenberg is joining Haas for next year is Aston Mart🎃in’s decision to sign a new reserve drivꩲer - former McLaren driver Stoffel Vandoorne.
Aston 🎃Martin announced🐼 the signing of Vandoorne on Tuesday morning, with no mention of Hulkenberg in their press release.
This news also leaves Mercedes without a reserve driver for next year, potentially opening the door for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo.
