Daily Mail: Schumacher is no longer bedridden and uses a wheelchair

Twelve years after the ski accident that changed his life forever, the 57-year-old champion moves around his Mallorca mansion only in a wheelchair under 24-hour medical supervision. The Daily Mail reports this.

“The Formula 1 legend, who hit his head and suffered a serious brain injury while skiing in Meribel in the French Alps just over 12 years ago, is not bedridden,” the publication said.

According to one of the publication’s anonymous interlocutors, one cannot be sure that the athlete understands everything, because he cannot tell anyone anything. There is a feeling that he understands some of what is happening around him, but probably not everything.

Only a select few can see Schumacher: his devoted wife Corinna, former Ferrari boss Jean Todt and a few other trusted people. Rumors about his presence at his daughter’s wedding in 2024 are untrue.

Despite the strictest secrecy, last year the family had to face an attempt at blackmail. Three men, including a former bodyguard, were convicted of trying to sell confidential medical information and photographs of Schumacher. A family spokeswoman called the actions “extremely malicious.”

Previously, Shelby released the track-ready Mustang GT350/TA with 842 hp.
