Former F1 mogul tight-lipped about Mick Schumacher’s potential comeback
The Formula 1 world is buzzing with speculation as Flavio Briatore remains elusive about the potential return of Mick Schumacher to the pinnacle of motorsport with Alpine. With Franco Colapinto underperforming, rumors are rife about who will partner with Pierre Gasly. Names like Jack Doohan, Paul Aron, and even Sergio Perez have been thrown into the mix, reigniting talks about Schumacher’s comeback.
When pressed about Schumacher joining Alpine, Briatore dodged the question, cryptically stating that it was neither the time nor the place to discuss the matter, further fueling the rumor mill. “Well, I’m not sure why we are talking about Schumacher now. We are in 2025. I don’t understand. What do you want to know? I don’t think that’s the question to ask here, right now. Next question,” Briatore was quoted as saying.
Schumacher, currently competing for Alpine in the World Endurance Championship, is eager for an F1 return but faces limited options after being let go by Haas in 2022 and overlooked for recent openings. The speculation around his potential return continues to grow, leaving fans and pundits alike on the edge of their seats.
The motorsport community eagerly awaits to see if the legendary Schumacher name will once again grace the F1 grid, bringing with it a legacy that has captivated fans for decades. Whether this comeback will come to fruition remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure – the excitement and anticipation are palpable as the rumor mill churns out more speculations.
