Schuey won 91 races in career and the poster depicts him driving his 2000 Ferrari to victory on his way to his first title with Ferrari.

On behalf of the Schumacher family, Sabine Kehm said: "We are delighted to be partnering with ZOOM to raise money for the Keep Fighting Foundation.

“This is a stunning way to celebrate Michael's iconic career and by the way a very beautiful poster."

One fan replied: "Magnificent, the power of love, god bless your family #Keepfighting #TeamMichael."

His wife Corrina, 46, Gina-Maria and her brother Mick, 18, have rarely spoken out about his condition.

However, the star's former manager Willi Weber said last October: "I find it very unfortunate that Michael's fans do not know about his health. Why are they not being told the truth?"
