[Jughead]

As a race fan, this news saddens me deeply. I always enjoyed watching him race, he was a truly gifted performer, a seven time F1 World Champion. My prayers go out to him, hang in there Michael.

Seven-time Formula One champion Michael Schumacher is in critical condition after he suffered a head injury in a skiing accident in the French Alps Sunday.

The hospital where he is being treated, The French Mountain Gendarmerie, said the 44-year-old arrived in a coma and underwent brain surgery after sustaining a serious head trauma.

The hospital said Schumacher was wearing a helmet when he had a hard fall at the Meribel resort. In a statement, the resort said Schumacher was conscious when rescuers arrived on the scene.

Big bummer. Outlook not good from what I've heard.

Heard they are starting the process to wake him up. Don't exactly sure what that means
