Mick Schumacher says he and Haas must take full advantage of every possible opportunity in his rookie Formula 1 season.
As the son of seven-time former World Champion Michael Schumacher, Mick arrives in Formula 1 with plenty of attention, but for his rookie season it will be a case of adapting to the series.
Haas have not brought any major upgrades to their car into the 2021 campaign, so the only factor which can realistically lift them from the back end of the grid would be an improvement in the Ferrari power unit.

Sebastian Vettel expects Mick Schumacher to impress in Formula 1 after earning his place on the grid for 2021.
Son of seven-time former World Champion Michael Schumacher, Mick has, as expected, been one of the most scrutinised junior racers of all time as he worked his way up the ranks.
And 2020 was a breakout season as he lifted the Formula 2 Championship winner’s trophy, finishing on the podium eight times, including two race wins, in what was one of the most competitive grids in recent seasons.
Now Schumacher, a member of the Ferrari Driver Academy, gets his chance in Formula 1 with Haas, so the attention on the German youngster will only increase further.
