Mick Schumacher opens up on having a seven-time World Champion father

Mick Schumacher says that there are "good and bad sides" to having a seven-time World Champion as your father. 

In an interview with the FIA’s Auto magazine as quoted by Crash.net, Mick said, “I am happy to be the son of the greatest F1 racer of all time."

I’m happy that he is the greatest F1 racer of all time, and I admire him for that. And even if sometimes it can be a bit difficult, it is what it is. There are good sides to it and there are bad sides.

“Having the support I have from a lot of people all over the world can’t be a bad thing. I am thankful for that.”

Mick commented on the false pictures that have been created online through his Twitter page. 

“These photos are often published because they supposedly show me as a child with my father. To clarify: these pictures here do not show me, and neither do they show Gina,"

"I'm sorry for the people in these photos. I can only appeal to all media to remove them from their archives," Mick said to his followers.
