Mick Schumacher drives father Michael's legendary 2004 Ferrari

HOCKENHEIM, Germany -- Mick Schumacher said he never stopped smiling during a demo run of his father Michael's 2004 Ferrari, which was a perfect fit in every sense of the word.

Schumacher, 20, drove the car in front of a delighted home crowd, completing three laps in the F2004 which his father took to a home victory at Hockenheim in 2004, on route to that season's title. It was Michael's seventh and final championship, a mark which still remains the most by a single driver in F1.

The youngster was wearing a half-and-half helmet -- his colours on one side, Michael's famous red Ferrari lid design on the other.
