Seven-time Formula 1 champion Michael Schumacher is no longer bedridden and moves around in a wheelchair. This was reported by the Daily Mail, citing sources familiar with the athlete's condition.
According to the publication, more than 12 years after a severe head injury sustained while skiing in Meribel in the French Alps, 57-year-old Schumacher lives in his home in Mallorca and is under round-the-clock medical supervision. It is emphasized that he cannot move independently and uses a wheelchair.
One of the anonymous sources of the publication noted that it is impossible to say for sure how fully Schumacher is aware of what is happening around him, since he cannot communicate or tell anything. According to the source, it seems that the racer understands part of what is happening, but probably not everything.
Contact with Michael Schumacher is strictly limited. Only a few people can see him, including his wife Corinna, former Ferrari head Jean Todt, and a narrow circle of trusted people. The publication also notes that rumors about Schumacher's presence at his daughter's wedding in 2024 are not true.
