Michael Schumacher shares the all-time F1 record with Lewis Hamilton as a seven-time champion of the sport. However, in December 2013, just a year after his second and final retirement, he suffered life-changing injuries while skiing in the French Alps.
Details of his condition have been kept under wraps ever since with his wife Corinna fiercely protective of her husband’s privacy. Their son Mick was just 14 at the time of his accident and was forced to continue to pursue his dream of reaching F1 without the guiding hand of his father behind him.
He made it to F1 and raced with Haas for two seasons until he lost his seat at the end of the 2022 season. Since then, he has been a reserve driver with the Mercedes team that his father came out of retirement to race for between 2010 and 2012, helping establish the squad on the grid.
