Haas are the final F1 team that still needs to decide its driver line-up for next🍌 year.

Speaking to German broadcaster , Ecclestဣone doesn’t ex♚pect Schumacher to be on the grid in 2023.

"I don't think he will be there,” he said. "Peo💝ple were disappointed with his performance," he said. "We doꦛn't know whether it was because of him or the team, but of course it's difficult to find someone to put him on a winning team. Because he's not in one at the moment.

"Maybe he needs to forget F1 and focus on the other motorsport categories. His name is his biggest burden, but he tries to live up to it as best he can. And that's what getsꦯ him⛄ into all his troubles. Therefore, forget it and win in another category.”

Ecclestone isn’t surprised Haas are favouring experience over youth and potentia♉l.

♛"It's not about age, but mental state," he added൩. "Look at Juan Manuel Fangio - he started at an age when everyone stopped long ago.”

The writing is on the wall for Schumacher after Hulkenberg said he’s “relatively🌱 optimistic” about making a return to F1.

Hulkenberg hasn’t driven in F1 full-time since 2019, although he has consistently impressed during his one-off ap🔴pearances in the subsequent years.

The German starred on his outings for Racing Point in 2020, before out-qualifying 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll in the season-opening 2022 Bahrain Grand Prix after 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sebastian Vettel was ruled out of the first two races with coronaviru💮s.
