"Get Well Soon Schumi"

[Brightonfan1983]

Is it common to take your top off and get your boxers out in get well messages?

Exactly. I don't doubt the sentiments are well-meant but really...

Positive reports coming out now....

F1 champion Michael Schumacher is showing "moments of consciousness" after months in a coma, his agent has said.

Sabine Kehm said in a statement to the media that he was "making progress", adding that they remain "confident".

Just announced that he's out of a coma and also out of hospital...

Good news. Can't say I'm a fan of his personality but he's a dad and a human being.

Link... can't find the link that says he's out of the coma... was moved to rehab a couple of days ago.

What it doesn't say is his state. They've been very worried that there would be serious permanent damage. Hope he makes a full recovery.

I think it's pretty much certain there will be long term health issues & physical effects, having been in coma for 6 months & suffering the injury he did I'd be amazed if he gets even 25% of his old self back.

Good to see he is out of coma though, I must admit I thought given how long it had been, that all hope was lost

F1 great Michael Schumacher's former boss at Ferrari says the latest news about the German's health "is not good" - but refuses to elaborate.

"I have news and unfortunately it is not good," Luca di Montezemolo told reporters on Thursday.

When contacted by BBC Sport, Schumacher's official spokesperson Sabine Kehm declined to comment.

Seven-time world champion Schumacher suffered severe head injuries in a skiing accident in December 2013.

Schumacher continues to receive intensive treatment at his home in Switzerland following the accident in France.

In November, FIA president Jean Todt said Schumacher was "still fighting", almost two years after the accident.

"Life is strange," added Di Montezemolo.

"He was a fantastic driver and only had one accident with Ferrari in 1999."

It really doesn't sound good. I'm all for keeping it in the family (if they so choose) but when snippets like that leak out without any further context it does leave a rather grim impression.

It sounds like they can keep him alive but sadly not much else.
