Michael Schumacher’s Son Makes Sad Admission About Stricken F1 Icon Following Skiing Accident In 2013

Michael Schumacher’s son, Mick Schumacher, has heartbreakingly admitted that he had to ‘find his own feet’ after his father’s tragic skiing accident in December 2013.

Schumacher was on holiday in the French Alps that year when he tragically veered off course and hit his head on a rock.

The F1 legend was taken to hospital and placed in a medically-induced coma. Though he was later allowed to return home, he’s lived his life away from the spotlight ever since.

Mick has ventured into the sport in the time since, though the German has struggled to scale the same dizzying heights as gia father.

Speaking in a new all-access book titled ‘Inside Mercedes F1’, he’s opened up on what his father was like growing up.

“I was a crazy kid, everything my dad did, I did.

“He was really supportive and a lot of fun, but could also be challenging.

“One time in a karting race I braked very late going into a corner and gained a lot of time.

“When I told him about it, he said, ‘Yes, but you should have braked like that in every corner!'”

Mick started his own F1 journey the year after his father’s accident.

And he’s heartbreakingly revealed that he had to ‘find my own feet’ given Schumacher was unable to impact his career in the same way he had done before.

“I started racing in the Formula classes the year after the accident and from that point onwards, I had to find my own feet,” he continued.

“But I definitely learned a lot of technical points from him that I still use today, as well as from his coaching.

“And I have always been very resilient.”

Not much is currently known about Schumacher and the 55-year-old’s life today.

There was recently speculation that he’d attended his daughter’s wedding, in what has been described as his first public appearance in nearly 11 years.

But nothing has been confirmed or denied, with the Schumacher family saying quiet on the matter.

One person allowed access to the 55-year-old since his accident is former Ferrari boss Jean Todt.

They helped the Italian-based side dominate the sport during the early 2000s, with Schumacher establishing himself as one of the greatest drivers of all time.

Todt said last year that while he doesn’t miss his old friend, because he does still see him, the F1 legend’s life is ‘different’ now compared to before.

“Michael is here, so I don’t miss him,” he said. “[But he] is simply not the Michael he used to be.

“He is different and is wonderfully guided by his wife and children who protect him.

“His life is different now and I have the privilege of sharing moments with him.

“That’s all there is to say. Unfortunately, fate struck him ten years ago. He is no longer the Michael we knew in Formula One.”
