The Race of Champions was held this weekend. In the Nations Cup, Norway proved strongest, while Mattias Ekström was individually fastest of everyone. At the end of the event, there was a nice, extended moment in which consideration was given to Michael Schumacher. The record champion is still recovering from a serious skiing accident in 2013.

Exactly how Schumacher is doing is not known. No information is being shared about the 54-year-old German's recovery, as his family wants to maintain privacy.

Son Mick Schumacher was also in Sweden over the past few days. He finished second in the individual section of the Race of Champions, behind Ekström.
