A decade on from the skiing accident which resulted in lif🦄e-changing injuries, the achievements of the mi♐ghty Schumacher are still legendary in F1.

Tost, who retired as AlphaTauri team principal at the end of last season to 🍎bring the curtain down on his own long F1 career, knew Schumacher from the earliest days of the driver’s journey.

Tost was the team manager of Willi Weber’s Formula 3 𝄹team which Schumacher drove for in 1989, and watched the driver go on to claim a record seven F1 titles.

Tost told the reason for Schumacher’s brilliance: “Despite all the talent and vehicle control – in the end, champions🗹 are champions because they have the will to keep improving .

“And this will is fed by the head.

“This very characteristic was 🌸extremely pronounced in Michael.💝 

“This also meant that if he was down𝓰, he would quickly get 🌄back up and come back even stronger.”

Tost remembered 🦩hearing about Schumacher’s skiing accident in December 2013. Initially, he was not worried about his friend, until news of his condition emerged.

“I just thought: ‘How important must Michael be if a fall on skis is worth🎐 reporting?’

“I wasn’t worried because I often went skiing wit🧔h Michael. 

“He was a very good skier w🦹ho didn't take any risks. 

“🐽When I realised the impact 💦of the accident, I couldn't believe it. I was stunned and shocked.

“I miss him, not only as one of the best racing drivers of all ti🔴me, but especially as a 🍰person.

“You could always talk to him openly. He never🦹 pretended, always said exactly what he thought.

“There was no politics or intrigue with him.”

Brother Ralf Schumacher added: “It was surreal.

“I have never experienced something like that.

“That's why the family quickly decided that Michael's health would be declare🗹d a private matter from now on. That hasn’t changed to 𒊎this day.”
