Mick Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel are two of the three active Formula One drivers at this weekend's Race of Champions. In the Swedish snow, they and other familiar names such as Colton Herta, Mika Hakkinen and David Coulthard will compete for the title.

First-round

On Saturday, Schumacher had little success during the Nations Cup with compatriot Sebastian Vettel by his side. On Sunday during the individual event, there was not much to cheer about either. The young German had to acknowledge his superiority to Jamie Chadwick as early as the first lap. After two rounds of racing, the event was over for the Haas driver. Vettel did advance to the next round. Valtteri Bottas is not competing today.

Of course, after their races, the drivers also came in front of the camera for short interviews. Mika Hakkinen, a two-time world champion in Formula 1, as a Finn should be an expert in racing in the snow. But he indicated that he is actually quite inexperienced. That led to an interesting statement: "I learned a lot today. I just don't know what."
