Jackie Stewart suffered a mild stroke.

It happened in early June. Formula 1 legend Sir Jackie Stewart (84) was staying with his wife Helen (82) and son Paul (57) on the occasion of the wedding of heir to the throne Hussein bin Abdullah II and Rajwa Al Saif in Jordan in Jordan when he suffered a minor heart attack. The three-time world champion (1969, 1971 and 1973), who took part in 99 races (27 wins) in his career, tells the British Daily Mail.

“That was the night before the wedding. I got up and had this weird feeling,” Stewart describes the events. Then he just fell over. “And then I can’t remember anything. I was unconscious for a long time.”

Walking was a bit difficult

Stewart was taken to hospital. There His Majesty made sure that the best doctors took care of him. Still, the Briton wanted to return to Europe as soon as possible. The Crown Prince of Bahrain kindly made his plane available for this. The quick trip back was only possible because Stewart said he was “doing pretty well”. He just had some trouble walking.

A lot of physiotherapy has contributed to the fact that he now walks almost perfectly again. That is why Stewart, who lives and cares for his demented wife Helen on Lake Geneva, will not miss the British GP at Silverstone (Sunday 4pm). The Rolex representative announces a two-day site visit. At the beginning of this week he was already present at the Wimbledon Grand Slam tournament. (bir)
