PARIS: Mick Schumacher, son of seven-time world champion Michael, will make his Formula 1 test debut with Ferrari in Bahrain on Apr 2, the Italian team announced on Tuesday ."I am really looking forward to what I'm sure will be a great experience," said Schumacher.
The 20-year-old will also make his Formula Two debut this weekend in Bahrain after being crowned Formula Three champion last year with Prema, an Italian team allied with the Ferrari Drivers Academy with whom he joined in January. "I am consciously putting all thoughts of the test to one side, because I am also very much looking forward to competing in my first F2 race," he added.
Michael Schumacher has not been seen in public since suffering head injuries during a accident on December 29, 2013 while skiing with Mick and his condition is a secret closely guarded by his family.The 50-year-old left a huge legacy at Ferrari, winning five of his seven F1 world championships the Italian team.
His son was selected for testing alongside Briton Callum Ilott, who will also test for Alfa Romeo in Spain on May 14-15."I believe that driving in an official setting such as the tests in Bahrain and Barcelona can be very useful at this stage of their careers."
