Heh, I thought he had had an accident in the car park where someone had hit him, but figured it was something like your answer ;P. Good teaser.
I was thinking along the lines of Him getting hit by a riot or something like that. It makes since though.
I WAS THINKING ALONG THE LINES OF SPILLING COFFEE....BUT IT WOULD HAVE HAD TO OF BEEN SOME SERIOUS BURN TO BE IN THE HOSPITAL FOR MONTHS

I thought he slipped on some petrol, broke his back and gor petrol burns. Of course breaking his back would mean he needed a wheelchair...
You said it was SURPRISING that he didn't give up racing. Why is it so unexpected that a famous race car driver would not quit after a minor accident like falling down stairs? Meh. He must live in a big house with big stairs.
Style, i think you missed the point. It says 'surprisingly' because at that stage you think the accident was a racing car accident. If he had a serious accident IN A RACING CAR then it might make sense that he gave up racing.
I said it wasn't a car accident, does that count?
HA! That was a good one!! I liked it!! Good job!
He could've been hurt a lot of ways....why did they approve this.....TOO MANY ANSWERS!!!!!I liked it though keep them coming
Answer is a bit too specific, I think. There's no way to guess he specifically falls down stairs.
Yes, I thought he got in a car accident in the parking lot.
