Wow. I cant believe this. I have been away from TV and alike today and have only just heard the news.

So sad. Come on Schumi, thoughts are with you.

Best wishes for a full recovery..

I'll keep a close eye on this page during the night, let's all hope and pray he is ok.

I'm gutted. I really hope he pulls through. He is my childhood hero. Fingers crossed for him. When I first saw these stories this morning I figured it was the media making a load of fuss over nothing. The guy has had no luck since he retired in 2006.

It seems there was somewhat of a cover up initially but I can fully understand why under the circumstances. Very worrying news indeed and hopefully we'll have happier news in the morning. I'm not a religious man at all but if there is something out there to give Mr Schumacher some luck, I hope it makes its presence felt. A guy who has divided opinion over the years in driving terms but a person everyone in F1 has the utmost respect for. Fingers firmly crossed tonight.

well Henners, I don't think there was a cover up at all but rather that Schumi seemed ok at first.

This types of scenarios is not uncommon when it comes to head traumas. The patient is initially seeming
to be ok but the conditions will soon get worse. Just look at the accident which caused Natasha Richardson's death.

Very true. I'm going to struggle to sleep tonight, hope he pulls through I really do.
