SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS, Belgium -- Mick Schumacher will drive his father's title-winning 1994 Benetton ahead of the Belgian Grand Prix on Sunday.
Mick will drive the car to commemorate seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher's first F1 victory, which came at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit 25 years ago. It was the first of 91 in the elder Schumacher's storied career, which is currently the most successful in terms of titles, victories and pole positions.
The Benetton B194 gave the German his maiden championship, though it was a tragic and controversial season marked by the death of Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna at Imola and a clash between Schumacher and title rival Damon Hill at the final race of the season in Adeilade.
