(Al Jazeera [半岛电视台], Dec. 30, 2013) —Former Formula One racing world champion Michael Schumacher is in critical condition after undergoing brain surgery following a skiing accident in the French Alps, officials have said.

官员指称，前世界一级方程式赛车冠军麦可‧舒马赫在法国阿尔卑斯山脉滑雪遭遇意外，并在进行脑部手术后仍处于性命堪虑的险境。

Authorities said that the seven-time world champion had been flown to hospital after he fell and hit his head on a rock at about 11:00 on Sunday.

当局表示这位七度荣获世界冠军头衔的车手在当地时间星期天上午十一点时滑雪摔倒且头部撞击到岩石，旋即被飞机载往医院抢救。

The 44-year-old German was "suffering a serious brain trauma with coma on his arrival, which required an immediate neurosurgical operation," the hospital in the southeast French city of Grenoble said in a statement.

位在法国东南部格勒诺布尔市的这家医院在声明中提到，44岁德国籍的舒马赫「到院前就已受到严重脑部创伤且陷入昏迷，需要立即进行神经外科手术」。

"He remains in a critical condition."

It is not clear whether he is still in a coma.

目前并不清楚他是否仍昏迷不醒。

The French Mountain Gendarmerie said that Schumacher was wearing a helmet when he fell at the Meribel resort.

法国山地宪兵队回报，舒马赫在梅瑞贝尔渡假村跌倒时，是有穿戴头盔的。

He was admitted to hospital at the nearby town of Moutiers, before being taken to hospital in Grenoble, the Gendarmerie said.

该单位还指出，舒马赫是先被送到事发地点邻近的穆捷市医院救治，再经由转院到达格勒诺布尔市的医疗单位。

A specialist neurosurgeon from Paris was rushed in to oversee his treatment.

Christophe Gernigon-Lecomte, director of the Meribel resort, said he did not know the extent of the injury.

梅瑞贝尔渡假村主管，Gernigon-Lecomte解释他并不清楚舒马赫的伤势程度有多严重。

Gernigon-Lecomte said that Schumacher, who reportedly owns property at the resort, banged his head on a rock while skiing off-piste near the Dent de Burgin (Tooth of Burgin) chairlift.

Gernigon-Lecomte表示据报导指称在当地拥有房产的舒马赫，滑雪时离开了滑雪道，头部撞击在缆车附近的一块岩石上。

The Meribel resort said two medical officers attended Schumacher at the scene of the accident, between the slopes of Georges Mauduit and la Biche, and he was flown by helicopter to hospital within 10 minutes.

梅瑞贝尔渡假村方面指出当时在两个坡道间，也就是意外发生地点，有两位医疗人员照护舒马赫的伤势，并在十分钟内由直升机载运前往医院抢救。

"No one else was involved in the fall," Gernigon-Lecomte said.

Schumacher was hurt seriously once before, in a motorcycling accident in February 2009 in Spain when he suffered neck and spine injuries.

He recovered sufficiently from those injuries to make a comeback in F1.

Schumacher retired from Formula One last year after a three-year comeback with Mercedes, following his earlier retirement from Ferrari.
