Michael Schumacher hospitalized for two months

No official information on the state of health of Michael Schumacher has been given since February 13, the date of the last press release from press officer Sabine Kehm who confirmed that the seven-time world champion was still recovering from his skiing accident in Méribel on December 29. The absence of news from Grenoble University Hospital continues to worry fans of the Red Baron and the world of motorsport.

The organizers of the Bahrain Grand Prix also took advantage of the winter testing currently taking place on the Sakhir circuit to announce that turn number 1 would take the German's name. “With the support of his family, it is a great privilege to be able to honor the greatest driver in the history of the F1 and someone the people of Bahrain hold close to their hearts”, declared Zayed Al Zayani, the president of the circuit.
