Schumacher: “Very impressed”

Michael Schumacher, official pilot Mercedes GP since December 23, visited the Brackley factory this week. The former pilot Ferrari was able to see the state of mind of his new team. “ I spent two days at the factory to get to know the engineers. I am pleasantly surprised to see how motivated everyone is, commented the seven-time world champion. They are a world champion team but they do not seem at all jaded by success. On the contrary, they want even more. »

"IIt is important for me to be aware of everything, continues the German pilot. It was very interesting to understand the engineers and their way of working. I had already come to the signing and learned a lot, and now I know more about the team. »

« I also visited the Mercedes factory in Brixworth and I must say I am very impressed by the high standard I saw there. In Brixworth, people seem to be very motivated, which I find encouraging because I am in the same state of mind. What I also liked is that a lot of people speak German there. It's nice for once, I'm not really used to that in my work, and I find it very practical. »
