How is michael schumacher doing four years on from ski accident?

In statement, she told reporters: “The decision to protect his privacy from the public has been taken in Michael's interest.”  The seven-time F1 champion received catastrophic brain

injuries during the crash four years ago at the French resort of Meribel.   He was airlifted from the slopes, placed in a medically induced coma and cared for at Grenoble University Hospital

at the foot of the French Alps. In June 2014 it was confirmed that Schumacher was no longer in a coma and that he had been moved to a hospital in Lausanne near his home in Switzerland. In

September 2014 the F1 legend returned home to house on the shores of Lake Geneva to continue rehabilitation for extensive head injuries.  A statement at the time said: "Considering the

severe head injuries he suffered, progress has been made in the past weeks and months. There is still, however, a long and difficult road ahead." In 2015, Schumacher's manager said

his condition was improving "considering the severeness of the injury he had." The Schumacher family sued German magazine Bunte over a December 2015 story that falsely claims that

the F1 champion could walk again.  His family’s lawyer, Felix Damm, told a court in Germany that the seven-time F1 champion “cannot walk”, even with the aid of therapists.  In 2015 Mrs

Schumacher sued three German tabloids over reports that he has had begun to speak again and was undergoing specially-designed therapy.
