Michael Schumacher Contributes to Jackie Stewart’s Dementia Charity with Rare Public Gesture

Schumacher’s signed helmet completes a collection from all living F1 champions, set to feature in Stewart’s tribute lap at the Bahrain Grand Prix.

Michael Schumacher, with the help of his wife Corinna, signed a helmet for Jackie Stewart’s Race Against Dementia charity, marking a rare public contribution since his 2013 skiing accident.
The helmet, signed by all 20 living Formula One world champions, will be worn by Stewart during a tribute lap at the Bahrain Grand Prix on Sunday.
The fundraising initiative supports a new blood test trial for dementia research, developed at the University of Cambridge.
Jackie Stewart, whose wife Helen was diagnosed with dementia in 2014, established Race Against Dementia to accelerate research and treatment for the disease.
Stewart emphasized the emotional significance of Schumacher’s contribution and the urgent need for advancements in combating dementia, a disease currently without a cure.
