In the round-up: Mick Schumacher admits it took him several races to get the best out of his car at the start of the 2022 season
In brief
Schumacher ‘got lost with car set-up’ early in season
After a disappointing second season in Formula 1 which ended with him losing his drive at Haas, Mick Schumacher admitted it took him several races to get the best out of the car.
“Looking back, my approach was probably wrong,” he told Auto Motor und Sport. “We got lost with the car set-up at the beginning, but then caught on relatively quickly and made the right decisions.
“We started again from scratch. From the Canadian GP onwards I had a car that suited me and that we have continuously improved.”
Schumacher was on course to score his first points of the season in Montreal when he retired with a technical problem. He delivered on his promise by taking points in the next two races, but did not return to the top 10 again over the rest of the year.
