Another Schumacher will be racing in Russia

A second Schumacher will be racing at the Russian Grand Prix weekend with Mick's cousin David signing a deal with Campos Racing.

David is the son of former Williams driver Ralf Schumacher and nephew of seven-time world champion Michael.

Campos were on the search for a driver after Alex Peroni suffered spinal fractures and concussion in a huge crash at Monza, which saw him flipped into the air by a 'sausage' kerb and land on the tyre barrier.

And the team has turned to the 17-year-old Schumacher, who came home third in the 2019 Formula Regional European Championship.

"I am really happy to join a high-profile team such as Campos Racing," Schumacher said.

"It will be my first time driving a car like this so, we should be realistic and put our focus on learning as much as possible."
