F1 Legend Michael Schmacher Is Getting Better – Former Ferrari Boss Says

Must read

Two months after Michael Schumacher was discharged from the hospital and was taken back to his Swiss home, he has been kept away from fans and press, which made it almost impossible to follow up his health condition.

Jean Todt, Ferrari boss has however assured that Schumacher can lead a relatively normal life soon after he visited the German star at his Swiss mansion where he is being cared for in a purpose-built medical suite.

He examined his level of recuperation and told reporters that there is the possibility that Schumacher will get back on track;

“We must assume that Schumacher can lead a relatively normal life again within a short period of time,” said Todt.

“We can say he can probably never drive a Formula 1 car again. But he is fighting.

“His condition improved, and what is just as important is the fact that he is now at home with his family.”

The seven-time world champion Schumacher returned home to his wife and children two months ago after being discharged from a Lausanne rehabilitation clinic.

He was treated there after coming out of his medically-induced coma following a ski accident in the French Alps on December 29 last year , which left him with catastrophic brain injuries.

Jean Todt, now president of the International Automobile Federation, added that in the past weeks and months, he has made progress in relation to the severity of his injury.

“But a long and hard road is in front of him. Hopefully things will improve. His family is close to him. He needs time and peace.”

Schumacher is being cared for by a team of 15 experts at his home.  It is understood he remains immobile and unable to speak.

The team at Gland, where a purpose-built mini-clinic has been constructed inside the Schumacher mansion, consists of 15 people, most of them provided by the Lausanne clinic.
