Michael Schumacher health condition and the lack of significant updates has kept the fans and the media in the shadows. Thus, generating queries on whether Schumi is getting better or becoming worse.
After suffering a critical head injury while skiing in the French Alps on December 29, 2013, updates about Schumacher have become scarce. A news blackout was implemented in order to avoid giving false hopes and to remove F1 Schumacher and his family from the public's prying eye.
After the incident and the lack of significant information, various media outlets speculated about the condition of Michael Schumacher three years after the skiing accident. Perhaps the boldest claim made to date was the report of Schumacher being able to walk again. However, such news was denied by Michael Schumacher's lawyer igniting a court case against a German magazine, according to The Guardian.
In line with the idea of F1 legend's recovery, a more reliable update was shared recently by one of Schumacher's associates. Such news came from a close pal and former Mercedes Chief Executive Ross Brawn.
"There are encouraging signs and we are all praying every day that we see more of them. All I would say is there is a lot of speculation about Michael's condition. Most of it's wrong and we just pray and hope every day that we continue to see some progress and that one day we can see Michael out and about and recovered from his terrible injuries." The Telegraph quoting Brawn as saying.
Given these points, it is clear enough that the health condition of Michael Schumacher has improved since the accident. However, one cannot help but express their doubts and fears via various social media accounts and video sharing sites, especially that there are no evidences and photos being presented. Guess we would just have to wait and see for further updates coming from Schumacher's camp in 2017.
