Michael Schumacher’s family lawyer has explained exactly why no report on his condition has ever been released – 10 years after his skiing accident. Voluntary self-disclosure is the precedent that a person cannot claim the right to privacy if the information being reported or that they are being asked about has been shared publicly by themselves or on their behalf by a representative. The Schumacher family have had to deal with this on a number of occasions, with close acquaintances discussing the 54-year-old’s condition. Former FIA president and Schumacher’s close friend Jean Todt has been among those close to the family to talk on Schumacher, but Damm has explained that even this information cannot be shared with the public. Despite the lack of verified information surrounding Schumacher, there remains a huge interest surrounding th former Formula One star.
