Will Massa still be able to drive?

Si Ferrari and those around Felipe Massa are reassured about the Brazilian?s state of health, no one can yet say if he will be able to get back behind the wheel. “We can't say if he will be able to race again, it's still too early,” said neurosurgeon Robert Veres, quoted by local media, who is treating the Ferrari driver at the AEK military hospital in Budapest. . In any case, it is certain that the Brazilian will not be able to occupy his seat during the next European Grands Prix.

At present, medical staff cannot comment on the pilot's visual abilities. However, Felipe Massa was indeed hit in the left eye, as confirmed by his neurosurgeon. But the nature and extent of the injury cannot yet be determined. It is therefore with the greatest uncertainty about the rest of his career that Felipe Massa continues his convalescence. But the operation carried out on Saturday evening on the Brazilian saved his life. For the driver, it is already a first victory.
