Schumacher improves following second operation Surgeons treating Michael Schumacher said they have detected an improvement in his condition but have cautioned that the grand prix champion is still not out of danger. After consulting his family, surgeons performed a second operation overnight to relieve pressure on his brain. While the doctors said there are some positive signs and there is a slight improvement in his condition, they disclosed that more lesions were discovered on his brain. Professor Jean-Francois Payan said: “We have received a transitional improvement on the brain for Michael Schumacher which meant that we could take a new scan without putting him at risk. “This scan showed that he is relatively stable. “So this morning we took more scans and we have noticed we have evacuated the haematoma which is situated on the left hand side of the brain which means the situation is better controlled than yesterday. “The scans showed that the haematoma was correctly evacuated and there was an improvement. “But scans show that there are other lesions on the brain and show these lesions need to be kept in check and we need to check on these every hour.” The second operation took around two hours however the medical team treating Schumacher said the ensuing hours will be crucial to the outcome. Surgeons remain standfast in not divulging any prognosis about Schumacher’s future. “We can’t say that he is out of danger but we now have a bit more time in the evolution. “The hours to come will be crucial to the outcome. “Yesterday we found a window of opportunity to do this operation at the beginning of the evening. “With the permission of the family who also wanted to do this. “We still can’t say we have won but there has been some highs and some lows.” Schumacher, whose condition remains critical, remains too fragile to transfer to another hospital and any decision to do so will come at a later date. http://www.speedcafe.com/2013/12/31/schumacher-shows-improvement-following-second-operation/

Professor Emmanuel Gay carried out a second operation to remove a large blood clot within the brain itself, after Schumacher's condition briefly stabilised Tuesday morning AEST. The two-hour surgery successfully removed the large haematoma and subsequent scans had shown a slight improvement.But the doctors are wary of any prognosis, short term or even long term and said he was still in serious danger. They would not be drawn on how long he would remain in a coma and said the next 24 hours was critical.Professor Gay said: "There is still some blood and haematomas everywhere, that's why the situation has to be looked at hour by hour, we are looking at a serious brain injury and the situation can still develop. The other haematomas are not accessible, they are not of the same size as the one removed.''During the second surgery, the doctors were able to reduce the pressure on the brain and said the former Formula One driver was in a phase of relative stability. Doctors said the first operation soon after the accident was to remove a blood clot that was just outside of the brain, and it had been too risky to eliminate the large blood clot within the brain on the left side of his head. But surgeons took advantage of a small window of stability to conduct the second operation, which they said had resulted in better control of the intracranial pressure."On the controlled scans taken this morning [it showed the haematoma] was evacuated and the level of intracranial pressure has certainly improved, but scans shows other lesions on the brain," said Professor Gay."They will be supervised and followed and up, we will supervise situation on an hourly basis in intensive care." The doctors earlier remarked that Schumacher would have been killed instantly on Sunday morning if he had not been wearing a helmet when he fell and cracked his head on rocks in the off piste ski area in Meribel ski resort in the French alps. Two days after the accident, he remains in an induced coma in intensive care at the University Hospital of Grenoble with his wife Corinna and their children Mick, 14, and daughter Gina-Marie, 16, at his bedside. Other family members have also arrived to support Corinna, hospital officials said. http://m.theaustralian.com.au/sport/motorsport/michael-schumacher-slightly-improved-but-still-critical/story-fncei7d9-1226792370825

Seven-time Formula 1 world champion Michael Schumacher is in hospital after suffering a head injury in a skiing accident. The 44-year-old fell while skiing on unmarked slopes in the French Alps and hit his head on a rock. He was attended to within minutes of the accident before being airlifted to Moutiers hospital. Despite initial reports suggesting his injuries were serious it is believed that Schumacher, who was wearing a helmet, is not in a serious condition. According to the Press Association, Gernignon Christophe Lecomte - director of the Meribel resort in which Schumacher was staying – told Radio Monte Carlo Sport that the ex-Ferrari and Mercedes racer was conscious, and was airlifted with 15 minutes of the accident. The German's manager Sabine Kehm confirmed nobody else was involved in the fall, and was also quoted as saying: "Michael fell on his head when he was on a private skiing trip in the French Alps. He was taken to hospital and is receiving professional medical attention. "We ask for understanding that we cannot give out continuous information about his health." http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/111978

Kamui Kobayashi could make a shock return to the Formula One grid next year after being linked with Caterham. The 27-year-old has spent the 2013 season in the FIA World Endurance Championship as Sauber opted for a Nico Hulkenberg and Esteban Gutierrez partnership. However, he could be back in F1 in 2014 with Caterham rumoured to be getting rid of both Giedo van der Garde and Charles Pic. It is felt that Kobayashi will bring some vital experience - as well as plenty of cash through sponsorships - and that will allow them to also hand rookie Marcus Ericsson a seat. According to Finland's Turun Sanomat, the Japanese driver has already been spotted at the squad's Leafield-based factory. Van der Garde, though, remains in talks with Caterham but Heikki Kovalainen - who was strongly linked with a move back to the team after also losing his 2012 seat - is out of the picture as he is unable to attract big sponsors. http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/9085859/Kobayashi-to-return-to-F1-

Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone has hinted that the double points rule might be dropped before the start of next season, although he believes adding more races with increased points is actually what should be done. Earlier this month, the FIA revealed that double points will be awarded at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix - the 2014 season finale - in an effort to keep the battle for both the Constructors' and Drivers' Championship alive until the end of the season. The move has been widely criticised, but Ecclestone believes the best way forward is to increase the amount of races with double points awarded to three. "Personally my preference would be for the final three races to be worth double points," Ecclestone told The Daily Telegraph. "But it may well be that the rule is cancelled altogether at the next [strategy Group] meeting in January. I think it should be the final three races or nothing. "The final three races would mean the championship is kept interesting for everyone - fans, press and television - right until the end." One of the biggest critics of the double points rule is reigning champion Sebastian Vettel, who labeled the idea as "absurd". "This is absurd and punishes those who have worked hard during a whole season," the German said. "I respect the old traditions in F1 and do not understand this new rule." http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/9084824/Bernie-wants-more-double-points-races

Sauber will have a driver pairing of Adrian Sutil and Esteban Gutierrez next season after the latter was finally confirmed. http://www.planetf1.com/news/3213/9082572/Gutierrez-To-Partner-Sutil-In-2014 Sauber will continue to nurture Sergey Sirotkin over the next season with the view of handing him a race seat in the future. The teenager joined the Hinwil squad in July on the back of a sponsorship agreement with three Russian entities and, at the time, it was announced that he would drive for Sauber in 2014. However, the team have confirmed Adrian Sutil and Esteban Gutierrez for next year with Sirotkin named as test driver. http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/9082784/Sauber-preparing-Sirotkin-for-F1-debut The land-grab for driver numbers is under way with Fernando Alonso, Kimi Raikkonen, Nico Rosberg, Valtteri Bottas, Sergio Perez and Jean-Eric Vergne all revealing the numbers they'd like to run next year. Alonso wants No.14 because he was World Karting Champ at 14, on July 14, with Kart No.14. Should they not get their first choice, PF1 has come up with some alternatives... Lewis Hamilton - 8 The age difference between himself and Nicole (gossip mongers are suggesting a New Year engagement) Kimi Raikkonen - 99 His favourite ice cream Sebastian Vettel - 9 For when he's not carrying the World Champion's No.1. This will be the number of World Championships he'll end up with Adrian Sutil - 18 The number of months he got as a suspended sentence for assault Sergei Sirotkin - 19 The age when he'll make his grand prix debut. Or, 21, the age of his retirement Pastor Maldonado - 17 The millions of dollars his Venezuelan backers chuck at the team he's driving for Fernando Alonso - 12 The number of months left that he'll be remaining with Ferrari Nico Rosberg - 6 The number of marriage proposals Nico gets every week - not all from women Felipe Massa - 2 The world's longest-serving No.2 driver Romain Grosjean - 13 Romain has transformed his reputation in one season, so now he has the confidence to take on the number feared by F1 drivers over the ages Sergio Perez - 10 The number of times Sergio qualified in front of Jenson Button last season Nico Hulkenberg - 48 The number of calories Nico is allowed every day until he gets down to the ridiculous target weight demanded by the 2014 regulations http://www.planetf1.com/off-on-f1/9082764/Alternative-Numbers-For-Drivers
