Mick Schumacher posted a moving message to his father Michael on his 55th birthday on Wednesday evening.
Seven-time F1 world champion Michael has not been seen publicly since a near-fatal skiing accident in Meribel, France, more than 10 years ago.
His son Mick, who raced in F1 for two years with Haas from 2021-2022, posted an Instagram story on Wednesday of himself as a child alongside father Michael, both in crash helmets.
The caption read: “Happy birthday to the best dad ever. Love you.”
Schumacher’s daughter, Gina-Maria, posted a photo of herself alongside her brother and father with the caption: “Happy birthday Papa! Throwback to one of many of our adventures.”
Schumacher’s health condition has been shrouded in secrecy ever since his accident in December 2013, with his wife Corinna insistent on protecting his privacy.
