Mick Schumacher will debut in Formula 1 next Friday when he will take his place in the Alfa Romeo during free practice. To prepare him for that, he already came into action with Ilott and Shwartzman in Italy last week. In the meantime, he has also visited the Alfa Romeo factory.

Giovinazzi's seat

The racing team he will be racing for on Friday invited Schumacher to have a custom seat made so he can comfortably enter the track this Friday. That has been captured and a short video shows his visit to the factory. In this video, Schumacher also explains what the use is of it.

Schumacher will take over Antonio Giovinazzi's car during one of the free practice sessions this Friday. At the same time, Ilott will take place in one of the Haas cars. Shwartzman has already practiced with the two others, but he will have to be patient a little longer. He will debut in Abu Dhabi at the end of this year.
