Australian F1 Driver Mark Webber Seriously Injured After Being Hit By A Car
The Red Bull racer Mark Webber, fractured his leg in Tasmania in November when his bicycle and a car collided on a remote road during his multi-sport charity challenge.
Webber has been on crutches since his operation to repair the break but wants to discard them within a fortnight.
However, he is wary of pushing his recovery too quickly.
“I want to be testing at the beginning of February,” Webber said.
“I can’t push it too much because the swelling will come back.
“It could have been much worse. I was lucky it was the right leg, which is not working too hard in the car.
Webber’s 2008 Red Bull teammate and now team consultant, David Coulthard, said the Australian should be able to take part in some pre-season tests.
