The race is on.

And one of the most talked about drivers in Formula One circles right now is Ferrari Jr. Mick Schumacher, given he's leading the F2 Championship and is widely expected to race for Alpha Romeo next year.

But how good is he? And what should we expect if he does make the step up?

Helping me cut through the noise of a famous surname, a Mark Hughes, Jack Bennion,

and Volhoranji. Jack, in honor of your first appearance on this podcast, we'll introduce you first. For the race this year, you focus on American things, but you have a foot firmly in the

world of Formula 2, don't you? Yeah, I covered two years of, well, GP3 and F3, and then two years of Formula 2 for a different publication. So still do bits and bobs in the paddock and still well in touch with most of the teams and a lot of the drivers in there. And yeah, it's been a fantastic season to watch so far. it's been, I think the race would probably be a bit unhappy about how much f2 i've watched but for this uh podcast it's probably quite helpful yeah it does uh it does come in uh come in handy and actually uh mark hueser should bring you in because you're probably in the same position as me because all the f2 stuff in particular happens at really awkward points on the grand prix weekend the sprint race isn too bad, but it's often quite hard to follow the feature race properly. I often end up

watching them some days later, but I think like me, you try and keep an eye on goings-on in F-2 and

F-3 for the next generation coming through, don't you? Yeah, exactly. And I quite often, there's a

decision to be made quite often um when you when you're when

you're at the races between uh cracking on and meeting deadlines and um getting drawn into

watching the f2 race particularly the the the sprint race and it's yeah it's it's not it's not

it's not always clear cut what um what I will do at any given time.

But yeah, I've certainly seen enough to see the patterns of his performance.

And I've seen the evolution over the last couple of seasons.

So yeah, yeah, it's definitely a very interesting topic.

And Val, you are, of course, as ever in the Soviet Union, but even from over there,
