After his skiing accident in December 2013, Michael was in a hospital in Grenoble, France for nearly six months. Upon waking up from his coma, he was moved to a rehabilitation clinic in Lausanne, Switzerland where he spent three months. In September last year, he was finally moved to his home.
In an interview with a UK publication, Brawn said that he regularly keeps in touch with Michael’s family, but he tries to keep a balance of going to see his friend or just call his wife for updates because it is quite painful for him as well as the family seeing the slow progress.
Ross added that Corinna also calls him occasionally and keeps him updated. He said that they just keep praying every day and hope that he’ll recover to a stage where he can be almost normal again. He said that while recovery is slow, there is still always hope.
Michael Schumacher is one of the most, if not the most successful F1 drivers in the history of motorsports racing. He is the only driver in Formula One history to finish in the top three in every race of a season and he also holds the world record for the most consecutive podium finishes.
The Formula One website refers to Michael Schumacher as the greatest F1 driver that the sport has ever seen.
