Schumacher showing 'encouraging signs'

Michael Schumacher is showing “small, encouraging signs” following his skiing accident and his family remains confident he will “pull through and will wake up”.

With the new F1 season just around the corner, and with speculation growing about Schumacher’s condition given he has now spent almost 11 weeks in a coma after a skiing accident at the end of December, a new statement has been issued regarding the 45-year-old on behalf of his family.
