Mick Schumacher’s IndyCar debut came to an early end after he was involved in an incident on the opening lap.<\/p>\n
The former Haas F1 driver has embarked on a new career chapter in the Indycar series, signing with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing.<\/p>\n
The opening round of the new IndyCar season got underway this weekend in St Petersburg, with Scott McLoughlin taking pole position for the race.<\/p>\n
Schumacher started from 21st on the grid and hoped to make his way through the field to mark a strong debut.<\/p>\n
However, his race lasted just four corners.<\/p>\n
Sting Ray Robb of Juncos Hollinger Racing ran too deep into the breaking zone and made contact with Santino Ferrucci.<\/p>\n
Schumacher, who was to the left of Ferrucci, had nowhere to go and clipped the back of Ferrucci’s car.<\/p>\n
Both Schumacher and Ferrucci were eliminated from the race, while Robb was able to continue.<\/p>\n
