As everyone recalls, Mick Schumacher paid an emotional tribute to his father before the Belgian GP at Spa two weeks ago.

The 18-year-old ran a demo lap onboard Michael Schumacher's championship winning 1994 Benetton-Ford B194 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the seven-time world champion's first Grand Prix win, achieved at the Ardennes track in 1992.

Onboard footage of the event has just emerged and it's pretty awesome. Check out the video below.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
