LONDON - Retired seven-times Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher was airlifted to a hospital after colliding with a rock while skiing in the French Alps, officials told local media.
The 44-year-old German was wearing a helmet and his head injury was “not very serious,” Christophe Gernigon-Lecomte, director of the Meribel resort, told RMC Sport.
"He dropped off-piste at Meribel. He was wearing a helmet and banged against a rock," Gernigon-Lecomte told the channel. "Emergency services responded quickly. He was airlifted and taken to hospital in Moutiers.”
