Coming out of sedation this morning, Kubica's first words were to ask about condition of his co-driver, Gerber, who was uninjured in crash.
Co-driver explains Kubica crash
Robert Kubica's co-driver, Jakub Gerber, has explained how their accident on Sunday's Ronde di Andora rally happened.
The Renault F1 driver remains in intensive care in hospital in Italy and is due to undergo a second surgery on serious hand and arm injuries and a broken right leg.
Come on Robert, our thoughts are with you!
Maranello, 7 February â âRobert has inner strength and I am sure he can rely on that this time too,â commented Fernando Alonso, who was very shocked when he heard of Robert Kubicaâs accident, yesterday in the âRonde di Andoraâ rally. The Spaniard was skiing in Val Gardena along with Felipe Massa and other friends from within the team when he heard the news and by late afternoon he arrived at the hospital in Pietra Ligure to be close to his friend.
^ a good gesture by Ferrari... and nice to see ALO in the hospital for KUB..
Will Lotus Renault call on Raikkonen?
With the Lotus Renault GP team now effectively acknowledging that Robert Kubica could be out for the season, attention inevitably moves to the identity of who could replace him.
The fact that the seat is potentially available for the whole year â and that any driver signed in the next few days will still get six days of testing at Jerez, Barcelona and Bahrain â puts a whole new complexion on things. Assuming that Vitaly Petrov drives on the first two days, then there will be a car waiting for the new driver in Jerez on Saturday February 12.
talking about Kimi 
, he you go..
Kimi: What went wrong?
Kimi Raikkonen. The Iceman. Despite not turning a wheel in a Formula One car since the season closing race in Abu Dhabi 2009, he has â repeatedly â been the centre of attention during the silly season. âWill heâ, âwonât heâ, âplease come back!â âPlease stay awayâ. The opinions are varied and the facts are often false but 9 seasons of Formula One delivered just one title, won by a single point. âJustâ is the wrong word perhaps, as to become world champion is an incredible achievement. So why is a man with so much skill at his disposal sitting about in the WRC, having one just one short tarmac stage and crashed more times than we can remember? Itâs an extraordinary turn of events, but a lot of it wasnât down to Kimi himself, rather a large bank from the coast of Northern SpainâŠ
