Felipe Massa wishes Michael Schumacher quick recovery

Felipe Massa has said that he is praying every day for seven-time Formula 1 champion Michael Schumacher to recover.

The 45-year-old has been in an induced coma since suffering an accident while skiing off-piste in the French Alps on December 29.

"Dear Michael, my great friend, you helped me so much in my career, and I pray for you every day," Massa wrote on Ferrarri's official website.

"I want to see you stronger than ever, just as always. I give you a big hug."

Massa and Schumacher were teammates at Ferrari in 2006.
