Schumacher to miss European Grand Prix
MICHAEL SCHUMACHER is not going to be back in action at the European Grand Prix in two weeks.
"The recovery process is taking place normally," said Schumacher's spokesman Heiner Buchinger, "but sadly it is not going any quicker than expected."
Schumacher is now expected to be back in action at the Malaysian Grand Prix, at Sepang, in mid-October, three months after his crash at Silverstone.
"I still need four weeks before resuming full training," said Schumacher, "so the Nurburgring is not going to be possible."
