it was a horrible accident, my stomach flipped inside me when i saw it! it was a bit of a shock, the coverage just skipped midway through after being onboard with hamilton!

he was concussed on impact, but they managed to take him out without any probles and he went to the medical centre, then he was air lifted to a near hospital for some more checks, and there arent any reports to confirm any injury... he was released from hospital on monday!

Less than 24 hours after his high-speed accident in the Canadian Grand Prix, BMW Sauber F1 Team driver Robert Kubica has been released from hospital in Montreal.

The Polish driver was given the all-clear to leave by the local doctors and drove himself away from the hospital.

In the crash he suffered light concussion and a sprained right ankle but when he left the hospital at noon today (Monday) he was showing few signs of what he had been through.

"I have no pain and feel well. I want to thank everyone for the medical attention I received and for all the good wishes. Mario Theissen and other team members came to visit me and also thanks to Jarno Trulli who came as well. I am happy that I have been able to leave the hospital so quickly and will now prepare for the race in Indianapolis," he commented.

Kubica underwent intensive CT-scans and other checks in the Hospital du Sacré Coeur in Montreal.


Before being given the green light to race in Indianapolis Kubica will have to undergo further medical checks by the FIA Medical Delegate at the track on Thursday. This is standard procedure following such accidents.

According to the regulations the BMW Sauber F1 Team has until Thursday 16:00 hrs to announce its driver line-up for the weekend.

The accident on lap 27 of the race happened just after turn 9 when the 22-year old collided with the car of Jarno Trulli. There was no technical failure on the car.
