“I am determined to get back in the car and I am excited about the season ahead with the team.”

“I am motivated to bounce back from this setback as quickly as possible."

An Aston Martin spokesperson said “his fitness to return to the cockpit will be assessed daily and the team will issue an update ahead of the Bahrain Grand Prix.”
