Michael Schumacher, the most successful driver in Formula 1 history, is in critical condition after suffering severe head trauma in a skiing accident in the French Alps on Sunday, hospital officials said.
The 44-year-old German, who retired from the elite motorsport for the second time in 2012, fell and hit his head on a rock, said the director of the Meribel resort where Schumacher was skiing.
Schumacher was in a coma when he arrived at the University Hospital Center of Grenoble and required immediate brain surgery, hospital officials said in a written statement.
But doctors haven't released details about his injuries or his prognosis.

It's too bad any time this happens to anyone. I guess, for people who like cars that go fast, this is more important than the thousands of others who lose their lives in ski accidents.

I find it a bit ironic.

Rosell should ski more often

This reminds me of the crocodile digital sodomizer, Steve Irwin.

Rosell should ski more often

Only if he can take perez and Marca writers with him.

Seriously though, what an unfortunate accident. I hope he makes it out of this.

All that F1 high speed racing, where a few fellow racers have burnt to a crisp or died from crashing; and a rock knocks Schumi unconscious.
