Kubica set for further surgery on Thursday
Robert Kubica will be back on the operating table later this week to repair damage to the broken shoulder, foot and elbow he suffered during his high-speed rally accident.
The 26-year-old underwent seven hours of surgery on Sunday as doctors operated on his right hand which was partially severed by a metal railing following a crash into a church during a rally in Italy.
His recovery so far has been described as "encouraging" but is set to remain in hospital for two to three weeks.
"On Thursday, Robert should undergo some more surgery in order to stabilise the fractures to his right shoulder and right foot," the latest Renault update said.
"Three or four days later, another operation will allow his elbow fracture to be stabilised as well."
The team added that everyone is happy with his progress.
"According to the doctors, the levels of inflammation are in the norm considering his medical condition, and the recovery of his forearm remains encouraging.
"Yesterday, Robert was able to talk to his doctors and relatives. His medication makes him sleep quite a lot, but he is responding to all external stimulation," the team added.
"He has reacted well to the news about his condition and is ready to fight for his comeback."
