by Ralf Schumacher has admitted that he misses his brother Michael Schumacher from the past; however, he has accepted that sometimes life is not fair. The Schumacher brothers used to rule the circuits in Formula 1, becoming the first brother-sister pair to achieve victories in F1 racing. They are also the first siblings to take first and second podiums in the same race. However, life took an unexpected turn in their lives when Michael suffered a horrific crash while skiing in the French Alps, hitting his head on a rock. The F1 legend’s life has been uneventful since then, as the family decided to keep his health a closely guarded secret.
Michael reportedly made a surprise public appearance and recently attended his daughter’s wedding, his first public appearance since the accident.
Ralf shared his feelings about life after the horrific skiing accident and shared his relationship with Michael during their younger years and their F1 careers.
Speaking to German magazine Bunte, retired F1 star Ralf said: “Unfortunately, sometimes life is not fair. We have to accept it. When I see his children Gina-Maria and Mick, my heart smiles. If anyone in the family is looking for my advice, I’m there. They go their own way.”
He confessed: “I miss the Michael of the past. Life is unfair from time to time. Michael has been very lucky all his life. But then there was that tragic accident. Michael wasn’t just my brother. When we were kids, he was also my coach and mentor. He literally taught me everything about kart racing.”
Meanwhile, Ralf recently came out as gay, and has since been feuding with her ex-wife Cora. The couple separated and divorced back in 2015. However, things took a turn for the worse after Ralf decided to come out as gay and revealed in July that he was in a relationship with his French business manager Etienne.
Cora said in an interview with Der Spiegel that her former husband’s announcement was “like a stab in the heart.”
She added, “Today I feel used in the marriage. I feel like I wasted my best years. I ask myself a lot of questions. Was he honest with me?’
However, Ralf suggested that Cora was aware of his union with Etienne and published screenshots of an alleged WhatsApp exchange from last year in which Cora appeared to congratulate his new partner.
Ralf has now decided to sell the house he once shared with his ex-wife Cora.
According to a report on Daily Mail, the property is now being offered for sale by Marlies Muhr Real Estate, where the asking price is currently €4.85 million, which is the equivalent of £4.07 million.
