Schumacher’s son wins first Formula 3 race

Germany’s Mick Schumacher, the son of Formula One great Michael Schumacher, won his first Formula Three race on Saturday on the famed Spa track.

The 19-year-old triumphed in the junior category on a circuit loved by his father, who won a record seven Formula One titles.

Schumacher Senior made his F1 debut at Spa in 1991 and won his first race there a year later.

“It is a great feeling to win in Spa,” Mick told reporters.

His father suffered a serious brain injury in a skiing accident in 2013 and has not been seen in public since.
