Important victory: Michael Schumacher is no longer bedridden and is on the road to recovery

Wonderful news from Mallorca.

Details: According to the Daily Mail, 57-year-old seven-time Formula 1 world champion Michael Schumacher is no longer confined to his bed and is able to move around in a wheelchair.

It is reported that Schumacher continues to receive medical care and, although he is still a long way from a full recovery, those close to the racing legend say he is now able to understand a bit and respond by blinking.

"Michael is still fighting." Another person close to the family notes that the German communicates by blinking: "You can't be sure he understands everything, because he can't tell anyone. There is an impression that he understands some of what is happening around him, but probably not everything." - the Schumacher family stated.

Michael Schumacher spent a long time in a coma after suffering a neck and brain injury during a skiing accident in Austria in 2013. Michael's family refused to give up and kept believing in the legendary driver's recovery—and as we can see, their persistence is paying off.
