Michael Schumacher's wife Corinna places 'lucky charm' at bedside for quick recovery

F1 champion Michael Schumacher’s lucky amulet, which he took with him on every race, has been placed beside his hospital bed by his wife Corinna.

Doctors said that the seven-time F1 champion was showing slight signs of improvement and had had a second operation, but he remained in a critical condition, News.com.au reports.

The ceramic amulet was given to him by his wife after they wed in 1995, inscribed with the initials of family members.
