Record Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher will continue his recovery at home from injuries suffered in a ski accident late last year, his management said Tuesday.

In June, Schumacher, 45, was able to leave the French hospital where he had spent six months being treated for severe brain injuries.

He continued rehabilitation at Lausanne University Hospital in Switzerland.

The German seven-time Formula One champion fell and hit his head on a rock while skiing in Meribel resort on December 29.

He underwent two operations before being placed in an induced coma, from which doctors at Grenoble University Hospital Centre began slowing waking him in late January.
