Sabine Kehm, close friend and personal assistant to Michael Schumacher, has revealed Friday that the German champion is showing signs of 'consciousness and awakening'.
The seven-time World Champion Schumacher has been kept in an artificial coma at CHU de Grenoble following his skiing crash three months ago at the end of December 2013.
It is not yet known whether Schumacher's condition has improved sufficiently for him to breathe without the assistance of a ventilator.
Kehm's latest official statement says: “We are on his side during his long and difficult fight, together with the team of the hospital in Grenoble, and we keep remaining confident.
“We would like to thank you all for the continuous sympathies. At the same time we again ask for understanding that we do not intend to disclose details. This is necessary to protect the privacy of Michael and his family, and to enable the medical team to work in full calmness”.
Kehm also clarified that the Schumacher family has no intention of moving Michael from Grenoble to his home in Switzerland.
