Brain surgeon loses 14m snowmobile crash claim after text messages read in court
Briefly

Andrew Cannestra, a high-profile neurosurgeon, had his £14 million lawsuit against McLaren dismissed after text messages emerged indicating his casual attitude towards the snowmobile accident. Cannestra, who suffered injuries after crashing while participating in a luxury experience, previously claimed he was significantly impacted in terms of future earnings. However, McLaren's legal team argued they followed safety protocols and properly briefed Cannestra and his partner before the trip. Ultimately, the court found that his own messages contradicted his claims of distress over the accident.
