Luca Badoer says he has visited Michael Schumacher "regularly" since the F1 legend's skiing accident in late 2013. The former Ferrari test driver's comments come after Rubens Barrichello revealed last week that the Schumacher family had blocked him from visiting.
"I regularly visit him," Italian Badoer told Diariodelweb.it. "But the family wants to keep a sort of secrecy around him and I fully respect their will. They do everything for the good of Michael. Corinna allows very few people to visit him -- let's respect what she wants, avoiding any polemic," he added. (GMM)

Wow kind of rubbing in Ruben's face. It ought to be respected, but I still don't understand how this extreme secrecy benefits Michael.

Quite frankly I don't want to know, I was a Schumi fan since the day he got in the Jordan 191 in 1991 and if he's anywhere near as bad as I believe he is, I would be heartbroken to see him like that.
