Williams team chief James Vowles publicly apologized to Mick Schumacher for his controversial comments, clarifying that Schumacher is a strong candidate.
Williams team principal James Vowles has issued a public apology to Mick Schumacher. Vowles' initial comments at the Italian Grand Prix suggested that Schumacher was not 'special' enough to secure a seat with the Grove outfit, prompting a considerable amount of backlash from fans.
'So the decision is 'do we put Mick in the car', which I think Mick would have done a good job, or 'do we invest in an individual that's a part of our academy, that's done hundreds to thousands of laps in our simulator, that's driven the car, and on the data that we can see from how he's performing, who's making significant steps?''I think both would fall into a category of good and not special. I think we have to be straightforward about this.
