Mick Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel, the two Germans have been very close friends more like a Tutor Mentor relationship between them. But after the Miami weekend, it could have turned the opposite but fortunately, it has not. 

Seb is the same for Mick, as Micheal was to Seb said the young Schumacher, “What my dad was to Sebastian, he is for me”. The collide didn’t break the bond they had for each other and everything settled on the terms ‘It was just a race’ and there are no hard feelings between the drivers.

“I’m sure it will be good for me to understand what Seb thinks about it but we just have to move on from here.”

Lap 53 saw Mick’s Haas running outside the limits and Sebastian advantaging after his solid defence on Ocon fighting the 8th position. On the very next lap, Mick tried to take back the position and got tangled with Seb after plunging the inside line.

The immediate reaction from the Aston Martin driver on his radio was “Which gap was that?! I didn’t see that. Ahhhh that’s it I guess”

Later in the race, we saw the Aston Martin driver retiring.

Mick on the other hand got the damage on his front wing and had to pit for the change, dissipating all his hopes of first-ever career points. Young german was annoyed and wanted the corner getting on Seb’s inside and crashing with him. “Nooo, I mean that’s clearly my corner,” Mick on the radio after the clash.

With only two drivers excluding Nico Hulkenberg, Mick and Willaim’s Nicholas Latifi are the only ones left to score points this season. With the optimistic mindset, Haas driver thinks the pace was good on the Soft and Hard tyres, they could have easily scored points this weekend and if not now then will definitely do it in the future.
