Alpine team principal Bruno Famin has praised its World Endurance Championship driver Mick Schumacher, in a context where the squad may have a Formula 1 seat to fill for 2025.
The F1 driver market is fast-moving and Haas's recent results – four points scores in seven grands prix in 2024 – have made it a more attractive option than the American squad previously was. Haas has at least one available drive for next year following Nico Hulkenberg's deal with Sauber/Audi, while Kevin Magnussen's future is also uncertain following a tricky start to the campaign for the Dane with his contract expiring at the end of the season.

'What is very impressive is his mindset. 'Of course he's fast, but I think everybody knows he's fast. In endurance it's not always useful to do a very good lap time because you have the BOP on top and you have to be a bit careful with the performance.
