Michael Schumacher's 1991 season was his first in Formula One. He drove in the last six races, scoring four points and being classified in fourteenth place in the championship. He drove his first race for Jordan and the remaining five for Benetton. Schumacher, at age 22, made his début at the Belgian Grand Prix for Jordan, replacing Bertrand Gachot, who had been arrested in Britain. Schumacher performed above expectations; qualifying seventh for the race before retiring on the first lap with clutch failure.
