Schumacher continues to receive intensive treatment at his home in Switzerland following the accident in France.
In November, FIA president Jean Todt said Schumacher was "still fighting",almost two years after the accident.
"Life is strange," added Di Montezemolo.
"He was a fantastic driver and only had one accident with Ferrari in 1999."
