Robert Kubicas højre underarm blev skåret i to steder, med betydelige læsioner til knogler og sener. Vi gjorde vores bedste for at genopbygge funktioner af underarmen. Det tog syv læger, delt op i to hold, og i alt syv timer at gennemføre operationen. Det ene hold var emergency task force fra hospitalet San Paolo (Savona), som normalt er udpeget til at behandle denne form for skade, mens det andet hold kom fra ortopædkirurgisk afdeling af Santa Corona Hospital (Pietra Ligure). Ved afslutningen af operationen, Roberts hånd var godt vaskulariseret og varmt, hvilket er opmuntrende. Efter kirurgi, Robert Kubica vil fortsat være under permanent overvågning af natten, fordi hans tilstand er stadig alvorlig.

I dag, lægerne siger, at hans generelle tilstand er meget bedre.

Professor Mario Igor Rossello, Director for the Regional Centre of Hand Surgery at San Paolo Hospital in Savona: It has been a very important and difficult operation. Robert Kubicas right forearm was cut in two places, with significant lesions to the bones and the tendons. We did our best to rebuild the functions of the forearm. It took seven doctors, split into two teams and a total of seven hours to complete the operation. One team was the emergency task force from the hospital of San Paolo (Savona) that is normally appointed to treat this sort of injury, while the other team came from the orthopaedic department of the Santa Corona Hospital (Pietra Ligure). At the end of the operation, Roberts hand was well vascularised and warm, which is encouraging. Following the surgery, Robert Kubica will remain under permanent monitoring overnight because his condition remains serious.

Today, doctors say his general condition is much better. After spending the night under constant observation, he was briefly woken up by the doctors of the Santa Corona Hospital (Pietra Ligure) this morning. The Lotus Renault GP driver was then able to talk to his relatives. He was also able to move his fingers, which is encouraging for the rest of his recovery process.

Professor Mario Igor Rossello, Director for the Regional Centre of Hand Surgery at San Paolo Hospital in Savona, did not notice any swelling or infection on his right forearm, and this is another good sign, although it will be several days before it is known if the operation has been 100% successful.

In order to avoid any physical stress, Robert will be put under gentle medication in order to sleep for the next 24 hours at least. Meanwhile, the doctors will decide how they will treat his elbow and shoulder fractures. Robert may have to undergo surgery once again for this, but not for a few days.
