Schumacher’s manager Sabine Kehm said on Monday that the 45-year-old is no
longer in a coma after his skiing accident in the Alpine resort of Meribel
in December. He has been transferred to Lausanne University Hospital in
Switzerland.
The German F1 legend returned to the sport with Mercedes in 2010, before
retiring for a second time at the end of 2012.
Fernando Alonso, who shared may battles with Schumacher in the mid-2000s,
said: “Good start of the week with the news of Michael! So happy this is
going in the good direction!”
Force India wrote on Twitter: “Great to hear positive news about Michael
Schumacher no longer being in a coma. Keep fighting Champion!”
Mexican driver Esteban Guttierez, who races for Sauber, said: “Great to hear
good news about Michael. Wish him all the best for his recovery.”
