A friend of Michael Schumacher's says the Formula 1 legend's health condition must always remain private.<\/p>\n
The seven-time world champion hasn't been seen in public since he suffered catastrophic injuries in a skiing accident in 2013. Little is known is about his condition, and friend of the family Timo Glock, who is himself a former F1 driver, insists it needs to stay that way.<\/p>\n

"I've also known other members of his family for a very long time, but I try not to impose on their privacy. I respect their right to be private, and I don't discuss Michael's condition with them.''<\/p>\n
Glock claimed Schumacher was a very private person on race day, but away from the sport he was different animal. "I spent a lot of time off-track with Michael, and it didn't matter what we did," the 41-year-old said. "He was very open, super friendly, and a really nice guy. People thought he wasn't!''<\/p>\n
