Schumi's manager asks fans to have 'realistic expectations' from F1 great's son post his first Formula 4 test

Formula One legend Michael Schumacher's son Mick has stepped into the media spotlight after completing his first Formula Four test and it has left the German's manager calling for realistic expectations from the German's son.

Sabine Kehm, who is managing 16-year-old Mick's fist steps on the motorsport ladder, said that her message is to be realistic with expectations, after Schumacher's son completed the test at the Oschersleben circuit in Germany on Wednesday.

Kehm claimed that this is Mick's very first year in a formula series, adding that he has to learn a lot of new things and make a lot of new experiences because the difference between karting and formula cars is quite big, Stuff.co.nz reported.

She insisted to give Mick time and not to over-react in terms of expectations and just have him go step by step. Kehm claimed that Mick would of course try and do his very best but added that he also has to learn a lot, as this is really just the start of it.

In the three test sessions, Mick finished eighth, fifth and 12th, respectively, out of 33 drivers. The teen has joined the Dutch Van Amersfoort Racing team in the eight race German Formula Four series that starts up later this month.

Mick's teammate would be Harrison Newey, 16-year-old son of multiple championship-winning Formula One's designer Adrian Newey.

Schumacher, the most successful Formula One driver of all time, had suffered severe head injuries in a skiing accident in France in 2013 and is continuing his rehabilitation at home in Switzerland, the report added.
