168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Mick Schumacher could be handed a lifeline to return to F1 due to the misfortune of Logan Sargeant.

The Williams driver crashed heavily in practice for the Dutch Grand Prix on Saturday, and🐻 his ca🐬r scarily caught fire.

His front-right tyre touched theꦚ grass and ಞhe span into the barriers, wrecking his car.

Sargeant could not compete in qualifying as a res🍬ult, a nightmare scenario for an under-pressure driver who has already lost his F1 seat in 2025.

"My und൲erstanding is Williams are evaluating whether they should sub Sarge🅠ant out of the car, before the end of the season," Sky Sports' Craig Slater reported.

"P♚erhaps as an almost kindness to him. His form is bedraggled.

"He will start the grand prix t𝄹oday, Williams have repaired the car.

"It may h🎃appen, it may🐽 not. Their options are limited.

"Could Kimi Antonelli be allowed into that seat to give him F1 practice before his year at Mercedes? I understand there is zero interest from Mercedes i📖n putting Antonelli into the Williams.

"It is also tricky for Williams to put Liam Lawson in there, who is part of t🐼he Red Bull programme.

"Mick Schumacher, given his contractual availability, is perhaps ওthe likeliest driver if Williams to decide ♛to switch out Sargeant."

It was also speculated - by none other than Toto Wolff - that Sargeant could be𓆏 racing in F1 for the final time 🌞on Sunday at Zandvoort before being pulled out of the car permanently.

Mercedes team principal Wolff was𝓰 asked if his third driver - Schumacher - could return to a full-time race seat.

♈"It's hard for me toꦫ judge,” Wolff replied to .

“Aꦿudi is the only team that ha𒁏sn't named its second driver yet.

“I also do🔴n't kn🔯ow what Williams will do after today's debacle."

Schumacher and Red Bull reserve Liam Lawson are options if Williams decide to makeꦓ a change before next week's race at Monza, reported.

Schumacher is currently in his second season out of F1, after being axed🦹 by Haas at the end of 2022.

Then-team boss Guenther Steiner point🦋ed the finger at the frequency of Schumacher’s crashes before signing two veteran drivers.

The son of the legendary Michael Schumacher has remainﷺed in the paddock as Mercedes’ third driver.

This year, he added responsibilities with Alpine by racing for them in the World Endurance Championshiꩵp.

Schumacher was behind the wheel of 💝an Alpine at the 24 Hours of Le Manꦚs.

Alpine seemingly rep🐓resented his best hope of a return to F1, after their pursuit of Carlos Sainz ended in faܫilure.

But, Alpine confirmed ahead of the Dutch Grand Prix that they had picked rookie Jack Doohan to drive for t𒊎hem in 2025.

Doohan and Schumacher had p🔯reviously tested an Alpine on the same day - somewhat of a ‘shootout’ t💯est between two F1 hopefuls.

No sooner had🌟 Schumacher’s dream of an F1 comeback disappeared due to Alpine’s decisio๊n, than another potential pops up at Williams…

Any changꦯe would be short-lived because Williams have confirmed Al𝓰ex Albon and Carlos Sainz as an exciting 2025 driver duo.
