Michael Schumacher’s family has been firm in maintaining the privacy of the retired Formula One driver, especially when it comes to details of his health and recovery. However, it was reported that he previously traveled from Switzerland to Mallorca, Spain. Some reports imply this could be a manifestation that his rehabilitation is going well.

It was previously reported that Schumacher and his family left Switzerland in winter and traveled to their home in Mallorca. Neighbors told the German publication Bunte that they saw a dark blue helicopter land in the “park-like property” that the Schumachers purportedly purchased last year. Schumacher purportedly stayed in Mallorca through the holiday until his 50th birthday last Jan. 3.

The same report (via Stuff.co.nz) pointed out that being cleared to travel via helicopter could be a good sign that Schumacher is recovering well since he met a skiing accident in December 2013. The F1 icon’s family was reportedly spending the holiday at the French Alps when the unfortunate accident happened. In a statement, his manager Sabine Kehm confirmed Schumacher “fell on his head” and also asked for the public to understand the family’s decision not to “give out continuous information about his health.”

It can also be recalled that the Schumacher family was once rumored to be permanently moving to Mallorca after the purchasing the Mediterranean home. The information was confirmed by local authorities, which was later denied by Kehm. The Mayoress of Andratx Katia Rouarch issued another statement to clarify she never gave “any information about a potential relocation of Michael Schumacher and/or his family in our municipality of Andratx.”

The news of Schumacher’s vacation in Mallorca might have sparked speculations they are moving permanently. Before that happens, the local paper Vanitatis reported in February that the Schumacher family is no longer in their Mallorca home as confirmed by the security officers in the gated community.
