F1 News: Mick Schumacher Leaves Fans In Hysterics As They Spot Haas Reference In Latest Post

Fans have spotted a sneaky Haas reference in Mick Schumacher's latest Instagram post.

An eagle-eyed F1 fan has spotted a reminder of Mick Schumacher's time at Haas in his latest social media post and now others can't un-see it. 

The German driver shared the post to Instagram of him walking into his pool with the caption, "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming. It’s colder than it looks!! Feels like Sweden all over again."

The one fan in particular took to TikTok to show what they spotted in the background, which was one of the sauna pods which Schumacher had to pose in front of with Haas team chief Guenther Steiner in order to promote it for the sponsorship deal. 

Some fans may remember this from some of the earlier episodes of Netflix's Drive to Survive. The TikTok user posted the video saying:

"Casually admiring the new Mick post...

"Hang on, wait a second... [zooms in]

"Oh my god!"

Another fan commented explaining that they thought Home Deluxe, the brand of the sauna pod, was a sponsor which Schumacher brought to the team. They wrote:

"I think Home Deluxe was actually a sponsor Mick brought to Haas (like 1&1)"

Someone else commented, jokingly:

"Guenther figured if Mick lives in his head rent free, he'll live there rent free."

Schumacher lost his seat on the Haas team at the end of the 2022 season, however, according to various reports since, it seems as though things did not end on the best circumstances. The German driver was not able to secure another permanent seat for the 2023 season, partly due to the majority of the grid being contracted, so he signed with Mercedes as their reserve driver. 

Despite his year out of a full-time seat, Schumacher is keen to make a return for 2024 and has indicated that he has already received some interest from teams, although he has not specified who those teams are just yet.
