Ferrari teamboss compares Michael Schumacher to his son Mick

Mattia Binotto has praised Mick Schumacher and has compared him to his father Michael Schumacher. Mick has tested for Ferrari and is currently racing in Formula 2 and seems to have impressed the powers be at the Formula 1 team. Although it is uncertain, a Formula 1 future looks almost certain for the youngster. 

"His behaviour reminds me of his father," Binotto said to Bild.De. "The approach is quite similar, the way he deals with the car I saw it the first time I saw it in Maranello."

"He listened well, did not chase the limit, but slowly increased lap after lap, which is the most important thing on such a day."

Some will feel that linking the young Schumacher to his father paces too much pressure on Mick. He seems to be a very intelligent man and has handled the press and talk of his father very well so far. 

We will have to see if he makes it into Formula 1 but he is set to test for Ferrari again in the near future.
