Mick Schumacher was brilliant at the recently concluded Turkish GP qualifying

Mick Schumacher brought laurels to the Haas F1 team after finishing at P14 – Q2. This might look average in the eyes of the casual, but to do that with a Haas – simply incredible.

This was the second time Schumacher reached Q2 after having done the same at the French GP, earlier this year.

However, during the French GP, Schmuchaer crashed at the end of the first lap. But this time around, he set timing in Q2 as well.

Schumacher’s timing read 1:25.200 ahead of the likes of Daniel Ricciardo and teammate Nikita Mazepin.

He could have even pushed for a P13 or even a P12 finish, since Esteban Ocon and George Russell were milliseconds ahead of him.

P14 and Q2 for @SchumacherMick and @HaasF1Team

All the hard work behind the scenes

All the long hours at home and on the road

Well deserved and once again more than 3 seconds faster than Mazepin. Hopefully more people will realize that Mick is actually a really talented driver, he is just driving one of the worst cars of the hybrid era
