Personally, I don't like the way Newman is handling the situation. I guess he doesn't owe the sport anything or think that it is important to inform his fans who are/were concerned about his welfare how he is doing in his recovery if there is any.
Who will drive the #6?

I think the photographic record will suffice.
These people are going through some things. I don't require a statement.

yep, anything is possible is what I am alluding to, and my point is Newman is doing what Newman wants to do about the situation. Going by what other drivers have done in similar situations and their ability to communicate to the media, I like their methods of communicating much better than nothing leaving others to speculate.
He's in one apparently functional piece, with all the factory installed parts in place. That's enough info for me at the moment, and probably through the western races.

We got the news we needed. Now he gets to enjoy a bit of private life out of the spotlight until he's ready to set sail again.

Newman doesn't owe you anything. Also his employer and wife has released plenty of information to suffice.
Ross Chastain cherishes racing for Ryan Newman at Las Vegas
Chastain has texted with Newman, who explained what to look for in the car. Former racer Ron Hornaday Jr. called Chastain with some advice.
“Hornaday called me and told me that his steering box was going to be weird and I wouldn’t be able to push his brake pedal,” Chastain said. “He was exactly right. I had to take all the brake springs off it and put a little tiny one [in].
“His steering box is heavy but it’s challenging, so I’m actually looking forward to trying to learn how he does it.”
