Former Scuderia Ferrari team principal and current FIA president Jean Todt has that said he still makes bi-monthly visits to see Michael Schumacher.
Jean Todt and Michael Schumacher forged an integral relationship to help the Maranello team record one of the most successful and dominant eras ever seen in Formula 1 history. And, while very little is known about Michael Schumacher’s condition after his horrific ski accident in the French Alps in 2013, Jean Todt has revealed he still has a close bond with Michael Schumacher and his family with regular visits to see him.
“I see Michael at least twice a month.” – Jean Todt said, as reported by the Italian publication Corriere della Sera when asked if the health pandemic had put a stop to him seeing the seven-time World Champion – “I don’t leave him alone. Him, Corinna, the family: we’ve had so many experiences together. The beauty of what we have experienced is part of us and it goes on.” – he added.
That question was asked after Jean Todt name-checked Michael Schumacher following a question about what he will do once he serves the end of his current and final term as FIA president at the end of 2021.
“I have plenty of commitments: road safety for the UN, president of Aung San Suu Kyi’s foundation, and then the International Peace Institute. I’m on the boards of banks, cinemas and hotels. And I am proud to have created the Brain and Spinal Cord Research Institute, to which Michael Schumacher contributed.” – the former Ferrari boss concluded.
