Kubica talks about his horror crash

By on

After his terrible crash at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve at Montreal, Robert Kubica gave his first interview with 'Bild'. The Polish BMW Sauber F1 Team driver, as by miracle, only suffered light concussion and a sprained right ankle after his horror crash. He know talks about what happend on Sunday.

Kubica said in 'Bild': "I was very close to Jarno Trulli and wanted to overtake him on the right while the corner went to the left. I touched him and lost my front wing, which flew under my car so I was completely steerless immediately and lost control of the car. I jumped on the kerbs and all of a sudden was airborne."

"Everything went very fast, you can hardly think. I just let go of the steering wheel and placed my hands on my chest. I first noticed that I survived the incident when I was on my side and looking at the track marshals. I tried to move and noticed I was 'ok'. I wasn't unconscious really. Maybe just for a very short moment but I can still remember everything really well."

"We have to thank someone above because there is no reasonable explanation why I could get out of that car without even breaking a finger. I could probably hurt myself worse on the stairs! If this kind of crash had happened to me ten years ago I wouldn't have been here. Therefore I must really thank all the people at the FIA for how safe Formula 1 is nowadays."

Today, the FIA doctor will decide if Kubica is fit enought to race this weekend. If it depends on Kubica, he'll be in the car at Indianapolis: "I do not have pain, I am clear in the head can concentrate on the job. My ankles aren't in perfect condition but they don't disturb me. The FIA doctors will have to decide on Thursday if I can race or not. I hope I can get the chance to race at Indy."
