The latest update for racing fans on Jules Bianchi's condition five months after his serious accident at the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix is that the F1 racer remains stable, although, he is not showing any signs of improvement and still in the state of coma.

The German news publication Bild reported in Melbourne that French motor rader's condition has not improved.

He has since been taken to Nice, France to recover where he is no longer being given medication for an artificially-induced coma or connected to any life supporting device.

"Jules is still in a coma. As long as he does not wake up, the only thing we can do is wait," the 25-year old Frenchman's father Philippe said in a Gazetto dello Sport interview.

"It takes patience, a lot of patience, but it is difficult to know that at any moment a terrible call could be coming from the hospital. We have to be strong, like Jules and for Jules. As long as he is in this state, the doctors cannot say anything. He might wake up or he might not. I think he will, as he has not fought with us this long for nothing," he added.

If someone is confirmed to have been negligent or should be held accountable over Bianchi's accident, his father said the family is willing to take any legal remedies necessary.

"We've hired a lawyer who is currently extensively studying what exactly happened last October, and I'm waiting on his conclusions and advice to decide a future course of action. What happened at Suzuka was not normal, and if it appears that someone must be held accountable, then they will be without question," he said.

At the Japanese Grand Prix on 5 October 2014, Jules Bianchi was involved in a crash on the 43rd lap after losing control of his vehicle under intermittent rainfall caused by an approaching typhoon. His car collided head-on with a crane that was removing the Sauber driven by Adrian Sutil who crashed at Turn 7 of the Suzuka Circuit a lap earlier.

His team confirmed two days later that he had suffered brain injury from the crash, and that he had been unconscious since the crash.

Jules Bianchi made his debut in 2013 for Marussia and finished 15th in his opening race in Australia. Although he was not able to score any points, he was noted for his performance in the Malaysian Grand Prix where he finished 13th. In 2014, he scored his first point (and his team's) at the Monaco Grand Prix Formula One.
