Privacy 'in Schumacher's interest'

Keeping Michael Schumacher out of the public eye for the past three and a half years was in the F1 legend's interest, says manager Sabine Kehm. Kehm is working closely with the Schumacher family including his 18-year-old son Mick.

Over three years ago, former Ferrari and Mercedes driver Schumacher suffered head injuries in a skiing fall, and since then the German has not been seen or heard from publicly.

Kehm told Redaktions Netzwerk Deutschland that the policy of radio silence will continue: "Michael consistently drew a clear line between the public and the private, which was always accepted by the fans and the media. The decision to protect privacy from the public now has been made in Michael's interest," she said.

  • "which was always accepted by the fans and the media." I wish that was the case. One would think people could show them some actual desency, but apparently some people have the intellect of a Konami executive and thinks that stalking a whole family or even try to blackmail them for cash isnt an indecent thing to do. Leave the poor sods alone. When they are ready, if they ever will be, they or Kehm will tell us.

  • No that they have any obligation to share, but I don't understand why they have been so incredibly secretive about Michael's condition.
