"I would like to thank Haas F1 Team, Scuderia Ferrari and the Ferrari Driver Academy for placing their trust in me. He becomes the third Schumacher to race Formula One, with uncle Ralf Schumacher starting 180 races in a decade-long career. "I'm very pleased that we're able to confirm Mick Schumacher in our driver line-up for next season and I look forward to welcoming him into the team," Haas team principal Guenther Steiner said.
