German driver Nico Hulkenberg remains without a contract for the 2020 season after Renault announced the signing of Esteban Ocon for his seat.

4. The beginning.
Michael Schumacher started out his racing career in the same way as all the great
drivers, in karting. At four years old his father built him a kart and soon after
enrolled him in the local kart club Kerpen Horrom. From 1985 Schumacher drove
for Eurokart dealer Adolf Neubert and once again took the title.
In 1989 Michael signed with Willi Weber, whose team WTS he would drive for
during 1989 and 1990 in the Formula 3 Championship. Weber paid the costs for
both seasons (approximately 1 million DM). In the 1989 season Karl Wendlinger
was champion, with Michael finishing 3rd behind Heinz-Harald Frentzen.
During 1990 and 1991 Schumacher moved into sports car racing, instead of the
more usual step up to Formula 3000. Many managers believed this would block his
progression to Formula 1, but Weber believed that exposure to professional press
conferences and dealing with the cars of 700bhp would be beneficial.

8. XXI century.
2012
Best season yet of F1 return - in terms of speed. Secures first 'comeback' podium in Valencia, but
repeatedly hampered by Mercedes' poor reliability and points total fails to reflect pace. Replaced by the
team with Lewis Hamilton for 2013.
2011
Genuine improvement on 2010, almost matching team mate Rosberg in final standings. With Mercedes
well off the pace of top three teams, fourth place in Canada - the team's best result of the year - a real
achievement.
2010
Comeback proves harder than expected. Struggles with handling characteristics of 2010 car. Initially
unable to compete with team mate Rosberg in qualifying, and poor grid slots compromise races.
Improves steadily, but ninth in final standings a disappointment.
2009
Plans to stand in for injured Felipe Massa at Ferrari fall through due to neck problems, but then
announces full-time return with new Ross Brawn-led Mercedes team for 2010.
2004
Wins his seventh drivers' championship in style with an amazing 13 victories from 18 races. Retires just
once, in Monaco, following controversial collision with Montoya under the safety car.
