Michael Schumacher Appears to Be Getting Better; A Look Back at the Formula One Star's Legacy

A seven-time Formula One World Champion, well-known German racing driver Michael Schumacher is considered one of the greatest Formula One drivers in history. Sadly, he had a traumatic accident in the French Alps while skiing with his son, Mick Schumacher in December 2013. Now, he is believed to be getting better after extensive rehabilitation following his accident was put in place. His wife, Corrina Schumacher was seen attending their son's F3 debut, which leads some fans to believe that the Formula One legend is now better than before.

Daily Star reports that the son of Michael Schumacher finished sixth, eight and eighteenth in the F3 event at Silverstone and Corrina, who kept a low profile, was there to show support to their son. There were not too many people who were able to see Corrina at the event but FIA President Jean Todt confirmed that the Formula One legend's wife was indeed at the scene. Todt is apparently delighted to see Corrina with Mick again.

"It's good to be at Silverstone with Corinna and Mick. It reminds us of the good times," Todt wrote on Twitter. Fans immediately speculate that Michael Schumacher is better than before following his wife's public appearance at their son's F3 event. The Formula One legend is reportedly paralyzed, unable to talk and has memory problems but his manager has confirmed before that he is slowly improving considering the impact of the injury he had.

Michael Schumacher was named Laureus World Sportsman of the Year twice and also won two titles in 1994 and 1995 with Benetton. He then drove for Ferrari for 11 years and earned five successive titles between 2000 and 2004. His serious injury has caused him to become paralyzed and reports say that he is still in a wheelchair and unable to walk.

Michael Schumacher might be paralyzed until now but many fans, including his close friends are hoping that he would be able to recover from the traumatic injury and come out one day healthy. One of his friends, Ross Brown previously said that there are many speculations about his health condition but all they can do is pray.
