We will see Schumacher on the podium again according to Haug

After having had a difficult start to the season, Michael Schumacher got back into the game by signing his first podium of the year. We have to go back to the 2006 Chinese Grand Prix to find traces of Schumacher's finish in the Top 3. After waiting so long, the seven-time world champion should be able to repeat this performance as quickly as possible according to Norbert Haug , Team Principal of Mercedes AMG.

« This podium was important and he will do even more when we give him the car he needs in terms of speed and reliability », Explains Haug to Autosport. “ His lack of results this year is not his fault, and he could have had 60 or 70 points if he hadn't had so many mechanical problems, which would have put us in a good position in the championship. In our third season, we continue to learn. Knowing that we have a limited budget compared to others, we are moving in the right direction. »
