The Legend of Michael Schumacher

Michael Schumacher is one of the greatest Formula One drivers of all time. Born in Germany in 1969, Schumacher's father was a bricklayer and a part-time kart racer, which led to Schumacher's early interest in racing. Schumacher began his professional career in kart racing and quickly rose up the ranks to win multiple championships.

Rise to Fame

In 1991, Schumacher made his Formula One debut with the Jordan team, before moving on to Benetton where he won his first two championships in 1994 and 1995. He then moved to Ferrari in 1996 and won five consecutive championships from 2000 to 2004. Schumacher retired from Formula One in 2006, only to return in 2010 with the Mercedes team.

Sadly, in 2013 Schumacher suffered a severe head injury while skiing in France. He has been in recovery ever since and only a few updates have been given to the public. Despite this, Michael Schumacher will always be remembered as one of the greatest drivers to ever grace the track.
