Michael Schumacher leaves hospital to recover at home
 
Sabine Kehm said in a statement it had made "progress" but there was "a long and difficult road ahead."

Schumacher suffered a head injury in a skiing accident in France in December last year and was taken to hospital in Switzerland in June.

Schumacher's family said in June it was out of an induced coma to reduce swelling in his brain.

Schumacher spent six months in a hospital in France after the accident, before being transferred to a hospital in Lausanne. His family home is located in Gland, located on the shores of Lake Geneva, about 40 kilometers (25 miles) from Lausanne.

"Now, Michael rehabilitation will take place at home. Given the serious injuries sustained progress has been made in recent weeks and months," said Mrs. Kehm in a statement Tuesday.

The statement gave no indication of whether there was a change in the health status of Schumacher.

"We ask that the privacy of the family of Michael still met, and speculation about his health are avoided," he added.

Manager and his family also thanked the hospital staff CHUV Lausanne "for her thorough and competent job."

Schumacher has had two surgeries to remove blood clots from his brain before it was put into an induced coma to try to reduce the swelling.

Investigators probing the accident in the French ski resort of Méribel said Schumacher would rate a "very good skier" at the time of the accident.

He backcountry skiing when he fell and hit a rock, said.

Last month, a man arrested on suspicion of filtering the medical records of Michael Schumacher was found hanged in his cell.
