Jean Todt has admitted there's no answer to the health condition of F1 legend Michael Schumacher.<\/p>\n

The former Ferrari boss has been a long-time friend of the seven-time champion and is one of a very few that are allowed to visit Schumacher, 54, at his home in Switzerland since his traumatic skiing injury in 2013.<\/p>\n

The former Benetton, Ferrari and Mercedes driver hasn't been seen since the injury as Todt, 77, opened up on the pair's close friendship that has spanned over 25 years.<\/p>\n

Speaking to La Stampa, the Frenchman said: "Michael is a friend, I consider him part of my family. I go to see him regularly, in the past we have followed Grand Prix races on TV."<\/p>\n

He was reluctant to answer questions regarding Schumacher's health, stating it's private, as he added: "But the question 'how is he?' doesn't find an answer, because maybe he doesn't have one. It's a private matter. The only thing I'll say is that I adore Michael, I adore his family and it's right to respect their privacy."<\/p>\n

Todt was the man responsible for recruiting Schumacher to Ferrari in 1996 from Benetton but the pair were under immense pressure after going without a world championship for the first four years of their partnership. However, after the German's triumph in 2000, it was the beginning of a dynasty at Ferrari.<\/p>\n

Schumacher went on to win four more consecutive titles to mark seven championships – a record when he retired – and has since only been matched by Lewis Hamilton.<\/p>\n

Todt spoke on the progression of their relationship from a strictly working standpoint to a personal one. "At first professional, then with ever greater trust, until it became a great friendship," Todt said.<\/p>\n

"The situation was disastrous at the beginning. In '96 there was a lot of talk about my dismissal. Michael had just arrived and saw that my plan was right, the people who were about to arrive and with whom I was dealing in secret corresponded to our plan. This is why he intervened and said: 'If Todt leaves, I'll leave too'."<\/p>\n
