Schumacher recently played a vital role in Mercedes’ strong performance at the Spanish Grand Prix. Working overnight in the team’s simulator, Schumacher contributed to the team’s turnaround, resulting in Lewis Hamilton and George Russell both reaching the podium after a challenging start to the weekend.
Wolff affirmed that he would not hesitate to allow Schumacher to race for Mercedes if Hamilton or Russell were ever unavailable. However, his main priority is to assist Schumacher in securing a full-time race seat. Wolff believes that Schumacher’s talent deserves a chance and expressed the importance of providing the right environment and framework for each driver.
