Nick Heidfeld has revealed that he wrote an open letter to Robert Kubica following his third placed finish at the Malaysian Grand Prix.
Kubica was badly injured following a rally accident during the off-season which resulted in several operations and months of rehabilitation.
However, the Pole is recovering well and has surprised doctors by putting weight on his foot and clasping an object in his hand.
Dear Robert, Have you seen that? I printed your logo on the front of my helmet, and the Polish flag on the side. I wanted you to see that and to let you know that I’m thinking of you. I wanted to show your fans that you are a part of Formula 1 and of this team. This 3rd place is also yours! During the race I had often been thinking of you. Crossing the finish line, happiness totally flooded my head. I know what you are thinking right now: “Lotus-Renault has built such a wonderful car this year. I want to get back as soon as possible and drive it!” You can do it, I wish you all the best for your rehabilitation. Get well soon! |
