SAKHIR, Bahrain — Mick Schumacher is feeling comfortable under the spotlight in the desert heat of Bahrain. The prospect of seeing a Schumacher driving again in Ferrari’s famed red car has generated excitement and focused attention onto him. The young Schumacher said he is “totally confident” he can handle the pressure and said he feels “really prepared, 100 per cent ready.”One of his father’s trademarks as a driver was an unshakeable inner confidence. Nico Rosberg’s F1 title with Mercedes in 2016 made him only the second son of an F1 champion to become one himself. When Schumacher won the F3 European Championship title last year, it fast-tracked him into F2 and prompted speculation he could be in F1 by 2020.
