  1. The Swiss medical team now treating Michael Schumacher said on Tuesday that the Formula One champion could be in hospital for “long haul”, as a source close to his family revealed that he is drifting in and out of consciousness and remains unable to speak.

     

    Schumacher was transferred to University Hospital Lausanne on Monday to begin rehabilitation, almost six months after suffering a head injury while skiing in the French Alps.

     

    His manager, Sabine Kehm, announced that after his long stay in intensive care at Grenoble Hospital, he was no longer in a coma. But despite some reports, the 45-year-old racing driver, who is said to have lost 44lbs since his Dec 29 accident, still cannot walk or talk.

     

    Experts have noted that he was said by Ms Kehm to be having moments of eye opening and consciousness in April, which by definition meant he had already emerged from his coma.

     

    Darcy Christen, head of media at CHUV Lausanne, said Schumacher’s stay at the facility would likely be a lengthy one.
