Fans have been desperate to know some update regarding Michael Schumacher's health. But just like the past few weeks, the family and friends of the Formula One legend remain tight-lipped. Although earlier reports have already suggested that the F1 star was showing "encouraging signs," nothing much is really said about his current condition.

According to Daily Star UK, Michael Schumacher's ex-teammate, Johnny Herbert, noted that the F1 star had some "good days and bad days." While the new update is quite vague, that's all the fans needed to keep hopeful that the Formula One legend will someday recover from his illness.

This isn't the first time that someone close to Michael Schumacher shared an update regarding the current state of his health. Autoweek reported that the technical director at Benetton and at Ferrari, Ross Brawn, previously revealed the F1 star's health condition but quickly took them back after realizing that the family decided that they want to keep this topic private.

Michael Schumacher suffered a severe head injury as a result of an unfortunate skiing accident at the French Alps on Dec. 29, 2013. Knowing how much the F1 world loves the German racer, his family initially didn't keep this heartbreaking incident from the public and have been honest about what happened to the 47-year-old seven-time Formula One World Champion .

Now, the family of the German racer is hoping for fans and the media to respect their privacy. This sudden change of heart lead fans to speculate that Michael Schumacher's recovery may be bleak. The F1 legend's family and close friends has yet to comment on his health status.
