Mick Schumacher blasts fake family pictures on social media

Mick Schumacher set the record straight regarding a series of pictures of his father with children circulating on the web.

The images - shared by many fans on social media - purport to depict Michael Schumacher with son Mick and daughter Gina over the years.

The 19-year-old son of the F1 legend posted a message on Twitter warning people that the children appearing in the shots were neither himself nor his 21-year-old sister.

It's anybody's guess who the children in the pictures actually are, but Mick Schumacher is obviously just as protective of his family's image and privacy as was his illustrious father.

In a recent interview with the FIA's official magazine Auto, the Ferrari junior opened up recently about his seven-time world champion father, how he inspired him to follow in his footsteps.
