20th anniversary best wishes to the Schumachers

Michael and Corinna Schumacher are celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary today. The couple have two children together, 16-year-old Gina-Maria and 14-year-old Mick. Michael continues to recover from the skiing accident in December 2013 that left him with serious head trauma.

"He is making progress appropriate to the severity of the situation," said Schumacher's manager Sabine Kehm. "We need a long time."

We'll mark the occasion with a picture of the couple from happier days - celebrating success at the 2004 Spanish Grand Prix when Michael led his team mate Rubens Barrichello to a famous Ferrari 1-2 victory.
