Ralf recovering from dislocated shoulder

It has been revealed that Ralf Schumacher dislocated his shoulder in a skiing accident last month in the Vorarlberg region of Austria, but should be fit for the DTM season opener at Hockenheim.

German website Motorsport-Total reports the former Formula 1 driver injured himself last month, but with only a six week recovery period expected, this should not threaten his ability to race with the first race of the season still over two months away, on April 25th.

Ralf Schumacher is expected to race in the 2010 season for Mercedes-Benz again, though confirmation of his berth at HWA is still pending.
