After getting dropped by Haas at th💧e end of 2022, Schumacher was signed by Mercedes as their third driver.

Schumacher’s role involved supporting the team at races, while driꦇving Mercedes’ simulator to improve the car’s setup a♑head of qualifying.

As part of his year at Mer♛cedes✅, Schumacher got first-hand experience working with two top F1 drivers.

In an interview with ’s official website, Schumacher de🎉tailꦆed that his “biggest learning” from working with Hamilton and Russell was “everybody has the same insecurities”. 

“I think that for me what people forget – I was aware of it but it’s still something which you don't thi𒈔nk too much a♍bout – is that everybody is human, and everybody has the same insecurities,” he said.

“That for me was my biggest learning. Some of the questions when drivi♌ng myself which weren't answered then, have been ansꦰwered here. That everybody is going through some stuff especially while racing and it was great to have that experience.

“But also, obviously yo♓u know why they are as good as they are because of the approaches they take. 

“It’s great to see also Lewis who has been with💮 the team for so long, the connection he has to the team, they can talk without using words and understand each other and that I think is something which is quite special.”

Schumacher was unab💯l💛e to find an F1 drive for 2024, forcing him into a switch to Alpine in the World Endurance Championship.

He will remain Merceꦉdes’ third and reserve driver alongside his WEC commitments.
