A recent revelation by German newspaper Bild has shed light on an innovative approach to Schumacher’s care. In an attempt to stimulate his brain, Schumacher was placed in a Mercedes AMG car and driven around.
This method was chosen in the hope that the familiar sounds and environment of a racing car would have a positive effect on his brain function. This approach reflects an ongoing effort to find ways to aid Schumacher’s recovery by harnessing his deep connection to racing. A dedicated team for round-the-clock care

Together with their children Gina-Maria and racing driver Mick, she has ensured that Schumacher is well looked after at their home near Lake Geneva, while at the same time fiercely protecting his privacy. The family’s commitment to Schumacher’s wellbeing and privacy has been a constant since the accident. Upcoming documentary: A tribute to a legend

Update: Schumacher’s post-accident communication
Appearing on the Italian version of reality TV show Big Brother, Elisabetta Gregoraci made a significant revelation about Schumacher’s current method of communication. According to her, Schumacher, who has lived a life shielded from the public eye since his accident, communicates with his eyes.
“Michael doesn’t speak, he communicates with his eyes,” she revealed on the show, adding a new level of understanding to the extent of Schumacher’s condition.
Gregoraci also mentioned that Schumacher’s family have moved to Spain, where his wife has set up a hospital-like facility in their home to provide him with the care he needs. However, there were conflicting reports in 2018 that Schumacher had been moved to Mallorca, which were later refuted by his family.
It is believed that Schumacher continues to reside in Switzerland.
Limited visits and ongoing support
The care and privacy around Schumacher is highly guarded. Gregoraci noted that only three people are allowed to visit him, underlining the family’s commitment to his privacy and well-being.
This selective approach to visitation further demonstrates the family’s commitment to creating a controlled and supportive environment for Schumacher’s recovery.
