Mik Schumacher's downside score of zero points the competition with other young drivers has inspired more morale

Mick Schumacher hasn't scored a point in his first F1 season, but the German guys don't think it's a big deal. If you can get points, it will be a very wonderful reward.

Mick and his teammate Ma Zeping are the only drivers so far who have not scored points, and of course the team's points are also ranked first from the bottom.

Even so, Mick doesn't think points are the only measure of his season performance. 'If we can get closer to q2 and the points zone in the second half of the season, it will be a big success.

"Points are certainly wonderful rewards and we hope so. But I don't think it's a big deal even if we don't have points. At the beginning of the season we knew that this year was going to be a very difficult year. ”

Haas team has made it clear that they are abandoning research and development for the 2021 season, so they basically race with old cars, in order to save money and concentrate on the 2022 season. The task of the two young people this season is mainly to learn, to learn as much as possible, to prepare for the future.

At the beginning of the season, Mick could also see the taillights of Williams' cars during the race. It was in the battle against Williams' Russell and Latifi that Mick grew rapidly. "Opportunities like this have made me better and grow faster. Hopefully next year we will be able to compete evenly with other young people. ”

The competition with Williams' young driver also inspired Mick's morale, but also clearly understood the gap in the car. In order to be able to beat his opponents, Mick became more diligent, came earlier, and left later.

"I wonder if I can get closer to them when I do my best."
