Lotus Renault GP team principal Eric Boullier on Thursday said that Robert Kubica who was badly injured in a rally crash in Italy on Feb. 6, is recovering fastly
However, Boullier was not sure about Kubica’s return to the cockpit. Speaking on BBC Radio, the Frenchman said that a couple of weeks must pass before the doctors know more.
“I exchanged a couple of text messages with Kubica last night, and I went to see him last Wednesday,” Boullier said. “He is progressing very well actually, and it’s going as well as you would think to be in that state.
“It’s still very early; he’s just starting the rehabilitation this week. I think the hand and the elbow are the tricky ones that he injured in the accident. We still need to wait a couple of weeks, I think, to start to have a clear understanding of what will be the recovery and when.
“Rehabilitation started only this week, so it’s not easy to understand. Now the morale is difficult as well; he realizes how tough it will be to work and to be back.”
However, he insisted that Kubica is in good humor.
“Actually, he surprised everybody at the hospital in Italy,” Boullier commented. “All the doctors came to me last time
I visited him and they were very, very amazed how he’s mentally strong, and he was even smiling. He was an example to the department.”
