SCHUMACHER's best pal Felipe Massa has said he is praying for his friend's full recovery after visiting him following his tragic ski crash.
Today marks a full decade since Michael fell and struck a rock so hard it split his ski helmet in two - leaving him in a coma for 250 days.
Schuey has since been living alongside his wife Corinna at their Lake Geneva home under the care of a team of 15 doctors.
The F1 legend's condition has been kept under lock and key, leaving fans and motorsport enthusiasts wondering about his health.
But ex-Ferrari driver Felipe Massa, 42, was one of the few lucky ones to have visited Schumacher after his accident in Meribel, France.
Regarded by the Schumacher family as Michael's younger brother, Massa gave little information on Schuey's condition as he insists in respecting the family's privacy.
"I saw him," Massa told Brazilian podcast Fala Galvao.
"But I think we always have to respect Corinna's decision.
"Schumacher was like that, always very reserved with his family.
"Even when he was still racing, his children only entered the racetrack when the race started, so as not to have the press on them."
When asked if Schumacher's situation was in any way reversible, Massa replied: "I think if there was something [positive/ a solution], we would have known by now."
But the Brazilian star remains hopeful and says he constantly prays for his friend's full recovery.
"But I'm always cheering and praying that maybe one day he'll be back here, watching [Formula 1] or entering a race track, which is where I've always been with him."
The latest news comes after former F1 ace and pal of Schuey - Timo Glock - spoke about what life could've been like had the icon of Motorsports never been in the accident.
The 41-year-old German fantasised over what he thinks Schumacher might be up to today if he was able to recover fully and regain his drive and determination for success.
Timo Glock said: "He would always have been around the F1 paddock but whether he would have been a pundit, I don’t know.
"He would not have been the F1 expert in front of the cameras. Yes, he would have done interviews but I think he would have worked for the sport he lived for."
But Timo feels like his quest for glory would've made him want to continue and win more championships but as a team principle.
He continued: "Maybe not in the first part of his retirement, maybe later on. But he would definitely have been a good person in that position because he knows exactly what it needs."
Other successful drivers have also turned into team bosses such as Alain Prost and Sir Jackie Stewart.
The driver also said he "never thought it would be that tragic" a decade on from the horror ski crash.
Timo spoke to about how he first heard about the news and how he never imagined it would cause so much long-term pain to Michael.
"We were playing cards and we heard about it on the news. It was a huge shock. You never thought it would be that tragic.
"With Michael normally you would say he stands up and walks away. But sometimes things can be tragic."
Schumacher has also reportedly been back in the seat of a Mercedes car to help with his recovery.
The F1 legend has been driven around in sporty AMG Merc to help stimulate his brain with familiar sounds of race cars.
German publication BILD broke the heartwarming news about the ex-Mercedes driver being given regular trips in their cars as part of his treatment.
The purpose of the trips was to stimulate his brain with familiar sounds of race cars and the roar of a Mercedes AMG engine.
The seven time world champion dominated motorsport in a decade of dominance between 1994 and 2004 when he won titles with both Ferrari and Benetton.
