Polish F1 driver Robert Kubica suffered only a light concussion and a sprained right ankle in his huge accident during the Canadian Grand Prix on June 10. He spent the night in the Hospital du Sacre Coeur in Montreal where he underwent intensive CT-scans and other checks.

He was released Monday, June 11 and drove himself away from the hospital.

“I have no pain and feel well, ” Kubica said. “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. ”

The FIA’s medical delegate, New York’s Dr. Gary Hartstein, will examine Kubica on Thursday, June 14 to determine if he or a substitute driver will race for BMW Sauber in the United States Grand Prix.
