F1 Fans Left Heartbroken By Michael Schumacher Throwback Photo - "He Is A Hero"
F1 fans have been reacting to photos which have been shared from Ristorante Montana to Reddit, including throwback pictures with Michael Schumacher, Sebastian Vettel, and Fernando Alonso.
Ristorante Montana has a strong connection to Ferrari and is filled with memorabilia from the Maranello-based squad. The post was captioned:
"Cool photos through years from “Ristorante Montana” located just across Fiorano test track"
Fans used the comments section to share their heartfelt messages about F1 icon Michael Schumacher. One commented:
"That woman must have a lifetime of stories to tell. Also that first picture made my mind drift into places and now i'm sad :("
The first photo shows the seven-time champion twirling spaghetti with the famous Mamma Rossella. The post also includes photos of Mamma Rossella with Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso, Carlos Sainz, as well as the interior of the restaurant which is filled with Ferrari memorabilia such as front wings, race suits, steering wheels, and helmets.
Another F1 fan agreed with the user, responding:
"Same, there's moments I miss him the most like when Lewis is being treated like shit by fans who simply lack the respect for him, I know that Micheal would have words, because he always did, he was so respectful of upcoming champs like Seb or Lewis.
"Micheal with his legacy would do so much for this sport, he was a leader and he's missed. Just imagine him at Ferrari pulling it together for Charles or for Seb."
Someone else pointed out that the iconic restaurant was featured on Schumacher's son, Mick's, F2 documentary when he reminisced on going there throughout his childhood. They posted:
"There was a segment dedicated to this restaurant on Mick’s personal F2 documentary (the German one) and Mick talked about eating at this restaurant every time they went to the Ferrari HQ since he was a kid. Makes me tear up just typing this out"
Another kept their message short and sweet, writing:
"I miss Michael. He is a hero."
