The extent of the injuries sustained as a result of his fall while testing a Superbike in February were much more serious than I realized.
During a press conference Wednesday in Geneva, his doctor, Johannes Peil, revealed Schumacher had not only cracked his C7 vertebra but suffered a basal skull fracture which resulted in bone fragments damaging his vertebral artery. The C7 apparently is healed but the bone fragments injuries remain.
