Seven-time Formula One champion Michael Schumacher was slightly injured on Wednesday in a motorcycle accident in the Spanish city of Cartagena. Schumacher fell during a private testing session of superbikes at a race track and was later hospitalized with rib injuries.

"I was driving down start-finish and when breaking into the first corner I hit some bumps which made me fall," Schumacher said on his Website. "The checks in the hospital showed nothing and I am fine, therefore I went back home at the evening."
