Formula 1/ Walcotts thread.

They'll put him under some seriously intense physio probably, It's still another month till season starts he should be fit enough to drive by then.

Hope Robert makes a fast recovery, terrible news, terrible. Hope he's ok. Class driver aswell.

He woke up after his surgery and was able to move his fingers. But the doctor said it will take 6 days to know if it was properley successful. All the best to him, no doubt if he was in a McLaren/Ferrari or Red Bull, he would be right up there fighting for the title. Really hope he does come back, can't remember what race it was, but I remember him overtaking about 6 cars, his team pointlessly called him in for a pit stop, and he went out on fresh tyres and about 12 seconds behind and managd to overtake another 4 straight after pitting before the end of the race.

His hand is partially severed, I want to know what this means.

Just want to wish the best to Kubica, really sad

I think it was hanging off.

Get Well Soon Robert! You would be a great miss to F1.

When I posted that his according to the news his hand was just fractured!


Liuzzi, Heidfeld and Senna are all rumoured to replace him this year, Out of the three I'd pick Heidfeld without a doubt

I heard it was between Bruno Senna or Grosjean.

I want Senna because he's one of my favourite drivers

Are these the teams third drivers?

Car doesn't look that nice I dont think. Best ones are McLaren & Renault imo. Red Bull looks the same. Ferrari are apparently struggling for sponsors, hence why there is an Italian flag on the spoiler thing.

Same, by an absolute mile. Liuzzi's decent but too error prone and Senna's not proven at all.

Renault would prefer a more experienced driver

Aint many people with more experience than quick nick

Thats Kubicas crash from a different angle.

However, team principal Eric Boullier made it clear last week that
Bruno Senna would be his number one choice to slot into a race seat -
because he is the one with the most contemporary F1 experience.
"I will give it to the one who is ready," Boullier said when asked
which of his reserves was most likely to be used first. "Bruno is the
most ready driver."

Senna

wow thats crazy @ Kubicas car.

Senna

The reports I have read still sound pretty grim.

From James Allen:

Quote:

To recap, the latest bulletins from the doctors suggest a horrendous injury to his right arm which caused him to lose a lot of blood and despite some heroics by surgeons, the experts in the field to whom I’ve spoken suggest he will never regain fine motor function in that hand and so his F1 career is unlikely to continue. Of course there are always miracle comebacks, but that is what will be required here for him to race an F1 car again.

Some of the reports have even said he needed 6L of blood during the Op. A lot in any operation.

Hope he makes a speedy recovery.

Apparently it's between:
De La Rosa
Liuzzi
Heidfield

to take Kubicas race seat until he is back/if he comes back.

As nice as this looks cant believe they got rid of the blue livery

Williams

Heidfield is driving for Renault 2moro.. Make of that what you think.

Any update on Robert again?

Moved out of intensive care a few days ago. Moved his fingers and was laughing and joking around with his family. Things are looking on the up for him, maybe a few more operations but doubts whether he'll ever be able to race in F1 ever again. Shame really, he deserves to win a championship, no doubt he would've done that if he was in a better car.
