Mick Schumacher said the opportunity to drive his father Michael Schumacher's Ferrari F2004 in front of the crowd at the Hockenheim German Grand Prix was simply incredible.
Although the Hockenheim race did not have F2 as a cushion race, the only chance for German fans to meet the future star was to let him drive the show car.
Little Schumacher said: "I think it will feel very special. I have a lot of memories at Hockenheim, including winning the annual championship at the European Championships in Formula 3 last year. Being able to fly F2004 during the German Grand Prix is simply incredible. I was already excited. I hope everyone can enjoy it. ”
"F2004 is a symbol of F1 in Germany and I can imagine what memories it will bring to fans. I will also try to ignite those memories. ”
Schumacher Jr. had driven his father's B194 car for Benetton during the Belgian Grand Prix, but he hadn't tried the F2004 yet.
"F2004 is a dominant car. It's exciting to experience the engine of this car, and I'm curious to see what it was like to drive a car at that time. ”
Finally he bluntly said: "To be honest, I don't have much memory of 2004. Although I knew that my father had won his seventh crown and had won the German Grand Prix that year, I was too young to understand the significance. ”
