Rare Update On Schumacher’s Condition As Lawyer Confirms He Can’t Walk

We haven’t heard an update on Michael Schumacher’s condition for some time, with the family rightfully keeping details private after the F1 legend’s skiing accident in December 2013.

But a court case over false claims from a German magazine on Schumacher being able to walk has started, with his lawyer confirming that is not the case.

In December 2015 German celebrity magazine Bunte published a front page story quoting a source saying Schumacher was able to take a few steps with the help of a therapist and could raise an arm.

His manager Sabine Kehm was quick to deny the claims from the magazine and suggested the way Bunte had acted was “irresponsible”.

The Schumacher family has taken the magazine to court over the claims. The trial started in Hamburg on Monday and their lawyer Felix Damm said: “He cannot walk.”

Damm stressed it would not be correct for further details on Schumacher’s condition to be revealed in court. It appears the Schumacher family will be awarded damages, with a verdict likely to be made next month.

Schumacher won seven world titles during his time in F1, which included stints from 1994-2006 and 2010-2012. He is the series’ most successful ever driver.

because this magazine is a sh!tbox… nobody buys. They have celebrity news and sh!t like that nothing that people actually care about. So in order to sell anything they make up new celebrity stories

Isn´t it kind of ironic…he survives several years in one of the most dangerous motorsport without major injuries and a skiing accident which can happen to anyone of us nearly costs him his life.

It’s amazing how safe Motorsport has become isn’t it,now even skiing is more dangerous since they do not have what racing drivers have…
