Vettel and Schumacher in action at Goodwood Festival of Speed
- Toby McLuskie
The Goodwood Festival of Speed takes place from 13 to 16 July. On Saturday, all events were still cancelled due to bad weather. Today, however, there was action again at the annual event, including Mick Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel taking place behind the wheel.
Schumacher drives silver Mercedes
Mich Schumacher competed in several Mercedes cars, including the W02. This was what his father drove during the 2011 Formula 1 season. The son of F1 legend Michael Schumacher also wore the seven-time world champion's signature red helmet. Mick also took a seat behind the wheel of a somewhat less dated Mercedes.

Vettel in action in legendary F1 cars
Vettel, like Schumacher, came into action in several cars. Among others, the German drove the Williams FW14B, with which Nigel Mansell became world champion in 1992. Vettel also drove the 1993 McLaren MP4/8. Among others, Ayrton Senna drove this car in the 1993 season.
The moment everyone has been waiting for. Sebastian Vettel takes to the #FOS Hill in the #Mansell Red 5 #Williams and he only goes and performs a load of donuts. What an absolute legend. #F1
