Mick Schumacher has been “lobbying hard” to seal an F1 return with the new Cadillac team, it has been claimed. 🍬;

The son of legendary seven-time world champion Michael has been seeking a way back onto the F1 grid after losing his seat at Haas at the end of the 2022 season꧟.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Schumacher spent the following two years asꦬ Mercedes’ 🥂reserve driver before joining Alpine’s World Endurance Championship squad.

Cadillac’s arrival as the 11th team has opened up two more spots on the grid and given Schumacher renewed hope of returning to F1.

A🔥ccording to F1.com, Schumacher has been “lobbying hard to find a way into the Cadillac family for 2026”.

F1.com names Schumacher among the list of drivers under consideration at Cadillac, albeit a driܫver who is “further down the pecking order”.

Experienced options Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas are understood to be th🥂e frontrunners, with the likes of Schumacher, Zhou Guanyu and Felipe Drugovich also believed to be on the list of potential candidates.

Schumacher scor🀅ed 12 points across 44 races for American outfit Haas bet🎶ween the 2021 and 2022 seasons.

Bo🌞th the German’s points finishes came in back-to-back races in Greatꦑ Britain and Austria in 2022.

Schumacher’s best F1 result is sixth pl﷽ace, which he achieved at the Austrian Grand Prix.

Have Cadillac changed plans?

Cadillac originally held 💛a desire to field an American driver alongside a more experienced grand prix driv♓er, though this scenario is reportedly “becoming less likely for next year”.

Exper🧸ience is now viewed as being “key” for Cadillac who will be led by team principal Graeme Lowdon.

“That's why Perez and Bottas are under such serious consideration at Cadillac and are the fr🍰ontrunners – but is also why there are a few others still in the mix,” reports.

The report concludes that Cadillac are not in a rush to sign drivers but are keen to have at least one driver signed “before the end🔯 of the summer” to help with car development.

As a result, talks with drivers are expected to “accelerate 💜in the com🌺ing weeks as they zero in on their debut line-up.”
