Flavio Briatore, Michael Schumacher’s former Formula One boss, has given an insight into the seven-time champion of world champion’s health, who is still in a very difficult situation after his tragic skiing accident of 2013.
Schumacher, along with F1, was considered the best in the world of motorsport; however, he sustained a very serious brain injury after a skiing accident in the French Alps when he hit his head on a rock. The family situation was thus private, and only a few times was the media allowed to know about his healing process.
Briatore from the 1990s has been the most loyal friend of the German driver, and he has continued to have intimate relations with the legendary athlete’s wife, Corinna. In an interview, he has expressed his fear about the condition of Michael by quoting: “I often see Corinna and I know what is happening there, though we are all very disappointed over the situation not being good.”
The 74-year-old Itali, who was at the helm of Benetton, was proud of his leadership during Schumacher’s championship victory, dubbed the years 1994 nd 995. He did not disclose the adversity that the family is still facing in detail, but he agreed with the statement.
Jean Todt, the former boss of FFerrarii, described that even though he is receiving the best care and being supported by those who love and care for him, he is still away from the public.
Fans from all corners of the world still eagerly anticipate good news, but Briatore’s most recent statement implies that the condition of the motorsports legend is nowhere near being fully recovered and is still a very difficult task.
The legacy of Schumacher in Formula One is very difficult to match, having 91 Grand Prix victories and seven world titles, a record that Lewis Hamilton later equaled. His impact on racing is still there, but his absence is much felt by his friends and the fans who loved his skills.
While the Schumacher family seeks to keep their private life, the racing fraternity is still united in the hopes of a happy ending for the much-loved hero.
