Mick Schumacher will race in the World Endurance Championship for Alpine next season. The 24-year-old German, son of seven-time F1 world champion Michael, will remain as Mercedes’ F1 reserve driver for a second year. It’s what I’ve loved to do since I was a kid,” said Schumacher, who lost his seat on the F1 grid with Haas in 2022. Schumacher, who scored points only twice in 43 grands prix over two seasons, will again provide back-up to seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton and George Russell at Mercedes in 2024. “It was sometimes difficult to watch the other drivers take to the track,” said Schumacher. The World Endurance Championship is a series of endurance races across multiple classes of car and includes the 24 Hours of Le Mans race.
