Michael Schumacher's family are "happy and confident with the work of the team of doctors" according to his manager Sabine Kehm.

There remains no change in Schumacher's condition but Kehm was forced to release another statement asking for media not to speculate over his treatment and potential recovery. However, Kehm was also keen to stress views of the Schumacher family with regards to the treatment he has been receiving so far.

"Unfortunately I have to repeat that any information regarding Michael's health not coming from the doctors treating him or from his management must be treated as pure speculation," the statement read.

"I also repeat that Michael's family is very happy and confident with the work of the team of doctors treating Michael, and they trust them completely. Michael's condition is still considered as stable."

Formula One legend Michael Schumacher is “responding to instructions” as medics gradually bring him out of his coma, according to reports.

It has also been alleged that the seven-time world champion has blinked during brain tests.

Citing “very reliable sources”, L’Equipe newspaper said Schumacher has undergone a number of neurological tests since Monday and he has responded “positively”.

I'm gonna call bullshit yet again.


While I do very much agree the doctors are beginning to bring him out of the coma, no credible sources are reporting he's responding, blinking. Telegraph is notorious for crap like this.

The article i posted is on Bleacher Report, which is typically very reliable, but Sam pointed out that they cite their source on this particular verbiage as the Telegraph. I'm dumb, but I sure do hope it's true. I'll be more carefuller in the future.

It's all good Charlie, we're all in agreement we want Schumi better.

It's frustrating as all hell with some of these "reports" coming out, they're just after clicks to their site, they don't give 2 shits what the truth actually is. Sad
