Jean Todt called for the privacy around the condition of Michael Schumacher to be respected as he reflected on the "consequences" of the skiing accident which left him needing round-the-clock care.
Almost a decade has passed since the Formula 1 legend suffered that accident, while skiing off-piste in France. He was placed into a medically induced coma shortly afterwards before being transported to the family home on Lake Geneva in September 2014.
Since then, he has been cared for by his doting wife Corinna and a team of medical professionals. Updates on his condition have been few and far between, with the Schumacher family only trusting their inner circle with details.
