Writing in the official programme for this weekend's German Grand Prix, Corinna Schumacher says fans' support for her husband blew her away.
Over six months after Michael's skiing accident, and ahead of a race that he won four times, at this circuit, Corinna Schumacher has broken her silence, albeit in a written 'thank you' in the official programme.
"Dear motorsport friends, this is a message to all of you who have lived a passion for Michael’s sport in all the years together with him, and who have supported him the past half year off the track as well," she writes.
"The German Grand Prix gives me the perfect opportunity to cordially thank you for the good wishes and positive energies you keep sending Michael," she continues. "I have to say your sympathies literally blew us all away! Good to know that together we made it through the hardest time!”
"Now we are facing a phase which will presumably take a long time," she adds. "We trust that - as for so many years in F1 - time will be Michael's ally in the fight. Until then I would like to wish you and your families all the best as well."
