Formula One ace Robert Kubica has begun physiotherapy after undergoing a successful third operation on injuries sustained during a horrifying crash over a week ago, the Santa Corona Hospital where he is being treated said on Friday.

The Pole spent eight hours in surgery at the Santa Corona hospital in Pietra Ligure, Italy on Wednesday to repair damage to the outer part of his elbow.

The hospital in Pietra Ligure near Genoa said in a medical bulletin on Friday states that Kubica's condition was "satisfactory." It said he has been "transferred as scheduled from an intensive care unit to a rehabilitation department."

Kubica had earlier in the week undergone surgery on his foot, shoulder and inner elbow while last week he was operated on for seven hours to repair his hand.

"It probably won't be necessary to undergo more surgery," the statement added.

Formula 1 world’s stager journalist, Pino Allievi was the first media person allowed by the driver’s manager Daniele Morelli to have talk with Polish driver. While talking to the reporter, the 26-year-old vowed to "come back stronger than before".

"I'll be stronger as a driver, in the head. I have to return this year. My right arm feels better now than when I was hit by a drunk seven years ago,"

The Lotus Renault GP driver crashed while competing at the Ronde di Andora Rally in Liguria on February 12. He lost control on a bend at high speed and crashed into a guard rail, which buckled the driver's door, before ending up in a church wall.
