Kubica moved out of intensive care

Renault driver Robert Kubica was moved out of intensive care four days after his rally crash in Italy

MONZA:
Formula One teams used their cars to send Robert Kubica a ‘get well soon’ message yesterday as the Renault driver was moved out of intensive care four days after his rally crash in Italy.

The teams started the second pre-season test in Spain with the Polish message “Szybkiego powrotu do zdrowia Robert [Get Well Soon Robert]” on the sides of their cars. The website of the Formula One Teams Association also carried the message.


A team spokesperson said the Pole, who suffered serious arm, leg and hand injuries when his car crashed on a minor rally near Genoa on Sunday, was expected to have further surgery today.

He underwent a seven hour operation involving two teams of surgeons on Sunday to save his right hand and stabilise his condition.
