LONDON: Former Formula One driver Eddie Irvine won increased damages on Tuesday for the use of a “doctored” photograph of him on a 1999 advertising leaflet for a radio station.
Northern Irishman Irvine, who was awarded £2,000 (US$3,160) last year by the High Court after he successfully sued commercial radio station TalkSPORT for damages over the leaflet, had the award increased to £25,000 (US$39,510) by the Court of Appeal.
