In 2013, Michael Schumacher was involved in a serious skiing accident that nearly cost the former Formula One driver his life.

From 1991-2006, F1 fans were lucky to have witnessed Schumacher compete every season, and more often than not, he was dominating, especially in the iconic red of Ferrari.

The legend will go down as one of the greatest drivers in the history of the sport. Let's be honest, he's certainly in the top two alongside a certain Lewis Hamilton.

During his glittering career, Schumacher would go on to win seven major championships.

His first came in 1994, whilst his last came in 2004.

Unfortunately, in 2013, a year after his last race at the Brazilian Grand Prix, Schumacher suffered an accident whilst skiing.

Schumacher was on holiday with his family in the French Alps when he fell and hit his head on a rock.

He was then airlifted to a hospital in Grenoble. Following two surgeries, he was placed in a medically induced coma for six months.

After coming out of the coma in 2014, Schumacher was then moved to a hospital in Lausanne.

In a recent interview, Schumacher’s former manager Will Weber has blasted the German's family for “lying” about the aftermath of the skiing accident.

Speaking to Gazzetta dello Sport, Webber said: "It was a huge pain for me.

"I tried hundreds of times to contact [his wife] Corinna and she didn’t answer. I called Jean Todt to ask him if I should go to the hospital and he told me to wait – it’s too early.

"I called the next day and no one answered. I didn’t expect behaviour like that and I’m still angry about it. They kept me out, telling me it’s too early, well now it’s too late. It’s been nine years. Maybe they should just say it the way it is.

"I could understand the situation initially as I always did everything I could for Michael to protect his private life. But since then we have only heard lies from them. Years after the accident, I said to myself to just look out for the family as I couldn’t change things. He was like a son to me. Even today it hurts me to talk about it."

We think we can speak on behalf of everyone when we say we just want Michael to be OK.
