Re: 2011 Formula 1 Season - Official Discussion Thread
Robert Kubica's Renault team say his condition remains "good" and he is due to have a final operation on Wednesday to repair his remaining injuries.
The Polish driver suffered multiple fractures and a partially severed right hand in a rally crash eight days ago.
Surgeons have repaired his hand and on Friday they operated on fractures in his right arm and leg. The remaining surgery is to repair his injured elbow.
Renault said he would stay in intensive care until his final operation.
A team statement on Monday read: "The latest update on Robert is that his condition remains positive.
"He will stay in intensive care for the next couple of days to allow a complete check-up and to avoid another change of department before his final operation.
"His good general condition means that the final surgery (on the elbow) is scheduled for Wednesday."
Renault's statement followed reports that Kubica's girlfriend had told a Polish television station that his physical and psychological condition had worsened.
The team described the report as "wrong".

Renault's confirmed the signing of Heidfeld
Re: 2011 Formula 1 Season - Official Discussion Thread
Good and sensible decision. Let's hope luck finally goes his way and the R31 becomes a winner even before Kubica's comeback.
Pirelli tyre allocations for the first four events have been announced. The plan is to have two-stop races.

Liuzzi's set to sign for HRT.
So that means HRT will have a completely mediocre driver who doesn't deserve a seat. And Narain Karthikeyan.

their aim seems clear, try for last O, and perhaps even reduce chances of getting into 107% if they have a c**p carphil1993 wrote:Liuzzi's set to sign for HRT.
