Been on the news all day that he had a "crash" and banged his head. Now reported that he is in a coma and critical.

Yes .... just seen that on 10 o'clock news. As you say, it was initially reported that he suffered serious but none critical injuries ........ it appears now that it's more serious than that. And he was wearing head protection too. 

[chrisgixer]

don't like the bloke at all, but I do hope he/or anyone else in a similar position, makes a full recovery.

[Rods2]

I wish him all the best for a fast and full recovery. 

[MR MISTER]

I have sympathy for him, but...........blanket coverage on the bbc is just plain wrong. Another bomb has exploded in Volgograd, killing ten, and there are other events far more important than this.
It wasn't till I turned over to sky news that I learned of the bus bomb. The bbc in General, and news 24 in particular, get their claws into a story and just stay with it, interviewing 'witnesses' by phone and asking them for their thoughts when the poor buggers only heard a bang from two miles away.

Disgruntled of Wakefield.

Agreed^^^
Also just watched part of the press conference with the French surgeons.  Bloody infuriating !!!!
The same questions being asked in different ways by every reporter there.

Whatever we make think about him, he did make F1 exciting during his glory years, one of the last drivers with a real desire to win (often at any cost).

I hope he pulls through fully, although having seen the press conference, thats not looking too likely

Very shocked, I've been to Meribel around 4 times now. I've also been down the run he crashed on many times with some mates of mine, Biche which leads on to Blanchot was one of my all-time favourite runs, great combination of turns/gradient.

I went down Mauduit a couple of times, I remember it was steep for a red. Sometimes blues are like reds and visa-versa. I've also been off-piste between them, I don't remember any big issues around there, although snowfall has not been great this year, said to be patchy in places. So I doubt a low speed shunt could have done this, he must have fell some distance, but they don't mention that 

[cam2502]

Wishing him a full and speedy recovery. But as said, doesn't look good

+1 Disgruntled of Andalucia. BBC has become a dumbed down show.

I was working as a ward steward on the ward that Schumacher was taken to when he broke his leg at '99. It wasn't my shift to work though when he came in. Little story there 

Hope he gets better.

[Johnny English]

I wish him all the best for a fast and full recovery. 

+1 
 he is a kind of man who doesn't give up easily  the best wishes you Schumi! 

[AndyRoid]

I guess it makes a change for Hill to win

Must confess to a titter at this one.  Suppose its my black humour shining through once more, bit like a tatt I saw recently on a returned sandpit squaddie - one foot in the grave - just above where his right foot used to be.

Hope shumacher makes it though. 

[2boxerdogs]

Just heard the latest on the news, doesn't sound very good.I really hope he pulls through though.
