Speaking as a professional and FIS World Cup Masters racer, he’s a good skier, good, but not a very good ski racer and not at all ready for any kind of real speed. He just doesn’t have the skill set......hope he lives!
For what it is worth, this per his personal manager Sabine Kehm: “Shumacher was not traveling fast at the time. Those with him were initially shocked by how bad he was hurt. It’s not a question of speed but the angle that you hit the rock”. We will see I suppose. Prayers up for Michael.
