Mick Schumacher, the Formula One-bound son of seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, clinched the Formula Two drivers' championship title on Sunday.
Despite finishing 18th in the final race of the season at the Bahrain International Circuit, ahead of Sunday's later Sakhir Grand Prix, he took the title by 14 points ahead of nearest rival Briton Callum Ilott, who finished 10th.
Jehan Daruvala won the race, taking his first F2 victory after Schumacher had flat-spotted a tyre on the first lap in his Prema car.
Schumacher was third on the grid alongside Ilott and took second at the start, but fell back and after a pit-stop for new tyres had to rely on others finishing ahead of the Briton.
Ilott, who needed to finish second to retain a title bid, fell down the order and finished 10th.
Schumacher ended the season on 215 points and Ilott on 201.
Nikita Mazepin, his future team-mate at the Haas F1 team next year, finished fifth in the title race.
Schumacher said it was going to take time to sink in that he had won the title.
"I don't really understand I am champion yet.
"It would sound a lot better if we did a good race today. Nevertheless, we are champions and people will forget this race and remember the good times this year."
On Wednesday, Schumacher said his childhood dream had come true with the announcement that he would follow his father into F1.
"I'm happy it's been decided – I have been chasing this dream since I was three years old."
Schumacher and Mazepin replace Haas' current driver pairing of Romain Grosjean – who escaped a fiery crash in Sunday's Bahrain Grand Prix – and Kevin Magnussen.
Schumacher has shone in Formula Two this season after achieving 10 podium finishes and feature-race victories at Monza and Sochi.

Five famous companies founded by teens
There are numerous success stories of teen businesses that were created in college dorm rooms and other modest circumstances. Below are some of the most recognisable names in the industry:
- Facebook: Mark Zuckerberg and his friends started Facebook when he was a 19-year-old Harvard undergraduate.
- Dell: When Michael Dell was an undergraduate student at Texas University in 1984, he started upgrading computers for profit. He starting working full-time on his business when he was 19. Eventually, his company became the Dell Computer Corporation and then Dell Inc.
- Subway: Fred DeLuca opened the first Subway restaurant when he was 17. In 1965, Mr DeLuca needed extra money for college, so he decided to open his own business. Peter Buck, a family friend, lent him $1,000 and together, they opened Pete’s Super Submarines. A few years later, the company was rebranded and called Subway.
- Mashable: In 2005, Pete Cashmore created Mashable in Scotland when he was a teenager. The site was then a technology blog. Over the next few decades, Mr Cashmore has turned Mashable into a global media company.
- Oculus VR: Palmer Luckey founded Oculus VR in June 2012, when he was 19. In August that year, Oculus launched its Kickstarter campaign and raised more than $1 million in three days. Facebook bought Oculus for $2 billion two years later.
