I noticed from the various interviews and photos that Michael Schumacher's head and neck slant to the right. At first I thought it might be due to his injury from bike racing but then no, this goes back a long way. Maybe the centricity of the various racetracks around the world. As to his helmet, it is not red but bordering on orange. Notwithstanding other views, orange or purple would be better than yellow. |

Schumacher had an undetected neck injury at Suzuka in 1993 when he hit the wall backwards. It was only noticed in 1999 when he was scaned after breaking his leg and the doctors noticed that the bones in his neck showed evidence of previous injury. of course, it could just be a coincidence. |
