Felipe Massa Is Recovering from an Injury

During the Hungarian Grand Prix race Formula 1 driver was seriously injured. As the media reports Felipe Massa was hit by a two-pound spring that came lose from Brawn driver Rubens Barrichello’s car. The spring went right into his helmet which reduced the effect of the injury.

Felipe had to undergo an emergency surgery for skull fractures in a military hospital in Budapest. At this moment the driver has already left Hungary and went to São Paulo, Brazil where he began the rehabilitation process. Michael Schumacher, the most famous Formula 1 driver, is going to finish Massa’s job in the remaining races of the season.

Felipe feels good and he hopes to be back on the track as soon as possible, however, he thinks that the company could not make a better choice than Schumacher. “He knows how to win, he knows how to drive and he’s great. I’m sure that everybody will be happy to see him back on the track again,” Massa exclaims. As for himself, Felipe says he feels well, but he does not remember exactly what happened and he actually did not feel anything either. On the video issued by Formula 1 in several laugauges, the driver looks energetic and healthy except for a swollen eye and stitches on the left temple which he tries to cover with a baseball cap.
