Mick Schumacher can replace Sebastian Vettel at Aston Martin as the four-time world champion is reportedly not in a happy alliance.
Sebastian Vettel joined Aston Martin in 2021, a side with lots of promises, and had P4 (as Racing Point )in the constructors’ standings in 2020. So, a veteran like Vettel in Aston Martin caused massive excitement.
However, the partnership between the two sides hasn’t been up to the mark. Though Vettel has not been like his former self, he has still put in decent performances.
Whereas, Aston Martin has done poorly in giving Vettel a good car. Therefore, it would be unfair on Vettel to keep at the equal blame. Nevertheless, a report by Motorsport Italy claims that Vettel can be replaced at Aston Martin next year.
And his probable replacement could be none other than his godson in F1- Mick Schumacher. The second-generation driver from the Schumacher family has always seen Vettel as his mentor.
But this time, he could be replacing the former world champion. Currently, Schumacher is in Haas and is yet to score a point in his career after 26 race starts. A stat which is not looking good on his familiar legacy in the sport.

Meanwhile, on Twitter, the report hasn’t got a pleasing response. Many see Aston Martin only going for big names rather than building a team. On the other hand, many feel that Schumacher is not ready and should stick with Haas.
Though, Motorsport Italy isn’t considered among the greatest of sources. But there isn’t any deniability that Vettel is certainly not happy with his current resources.
