Michael Schumacher lost control of his skis after hitting a boulder and was sent flying into three other rocks, it was claimed today.
The Formula One legend was 'catapulted' headfirst with such force that it broke his helmet in two.
In a new picture released today, bloodstains can be seen in the snow at the spot where the former F1 ace smashed his head.
It also apparently shows the rocks which the seven-time champion struck in the French resort of Meribel on Sunday, leaving him with devastating brain injuries.
According to the first ski patrol paramedic on the scene, Schumacher hit a boulder which was concealed by snow that had fallen the night before and then struck three more rocks.
The French national, who asked not to be named, said: ‘We arrived within two minutes of the accident. The man lost control after hitting a rock that was lightly covered with snow....
We wish him quick recovery...
