A doctor says Felipe Massa's life is no longer in danger, but that the Ferrari driver sustained an eye injury in his crash which could affect his future in Formula One.
Robert Veres, the doctor who performed surgery on Massa after his crash, said on Monday that Massa was stable and remained sedated 'to protect his brain'.
Veres said Massa had suffered damage to his left eye but didn't 'know the quality of this damage'.
Ferrari president Luca di Montezemelo said that Ferrari's first priority was Massa's health but that the Italian team doesn't 'want to wait too long' to decide on finding a driving replacement.
Earlier, a department of defence ministry spokesman said Massa's health was improving after the Formula One driver made 'passive communication' with doctors, and medical scans provided 'positive signs'.
Ministry spokesman Istvan Bocskai said that Massa was not speaking but that the 28-year-old Brazilian reacted when spoken to and was moving his hands and feet.
He said that military hospital doctors were 'reassured' after no complications were uncovered by a CT scan. An ultrasound performed on Sunday night to check on internal injuries revealed 'nothing that would give cause for concern'.
The sedated Massa was also being woken up more frequently. "These are definitely positive signs," Bocskai said.
Massa was concussed after a loose car part hit his helmet during a qualifying run on Saturday. Massa then slammed into a protective tire barrier at speeds of about 190 kilometers per hour causing multiple skull injuries that were operated on around one hour after being taken from the Hungaroring circuit.
