Jean Todt, who presided over Michael Schumacher's golden years at Ferrari, says he'd congratulate Lewis Hamilton if he breaks the German's F1 records, even if he'd prefer them to remain intact.

"On the other side, normally a record has a duration in life. All the records are due to be broken.

The Frenchman led Schumacher to five championships in a row between 2000 and 2004, when the Italian team were as dominant as Mercedes is now. Todt, who became particularly close to Schumacher and his family, said he respected and admired Mercedes' continued achievements but with some reservations. "I admire the competitivity, the reliability, the durability," said Todt."But for the sport I think like all of the people who like things more unpredictable, they would like to see more change."
