But it must be said that the two men have been at odds for a long time. “I said goodbye to Michael,” he concedes.

Since December 2013, the state of health of Michael Schumacher is one of the best kept secrets. Apart from the rare declarations of his wife Corinna or the family manager Sabine Kehmno information leaks. However, the seven-time world champion Formula 1 made his first public appearance since his accident a few days ago at his daughter’s wedding Gina-Maria. An event to which was not invited Willi WebberMichael Schumacher’s former manager. The two men have been at odds since 2010 and the return in F1 of the German pilot with Mercedes. Willi Webber also mentions this situation.

Willi Webber’s regrets

« I have had no contact with the family for over ten years. I barely remember what happened. I wasn’t invited to the wedding but I wouldn’t have gone anyway because my health is not good at the moment. I wouldn’t have wanted to fly to Majorca. Michael was one of my best friends. More like a son I never had. No one knows exactly what’s happening to him today, so I don’t want to comment further. », he confides in the columns of BILDbefore admitting that he doesn’t think he’ll ever see again Michael Schumacher.

“I said goodbye to Michael in my heart in order to find peace”

« Gina’s wedding brings back memories. Unfortunately ! I think about my successes with Michael – our goals and our victories. I remember Michael as he was. And we’ll probably never see each other again. It’s my fault for not visiting Michael after the accident and supporting him. Because I thought the media reports were exaggerated. I thought it would be better to wait a few days and everything would be fine. But it was too late. For a long time, I blamed myself for not reacting immediately. This is probably why Corinna took me away from the authorized circle. Since then, I said goodbye to Michael in my heart in order to find peace », added Willi Webber who therefore said goodbye to his old friend.
