Enzo Fittipaldi has posted an update from the hospital after he suffered a bad crash in the Formula 2 race in Saudi Arabia. He looks battered but comes off with a broken heel and some bruising. Earlier, Theo Pourchaire also posted an update on his health.

The Brazilian is happy that he has no permanent injuries from the accident and thanks everyone for their support. "I'm very grateful that I only have a broken heel and some cuts and bruises," he reads his message. "Thank you all for the messages, and the FIA and medical staff for taking such good care. I'm very happy that Theo is okay. I will be back on the track soon, faster than ever."

Fittipaldi especially happy that Pourchaire is okay

Fittipaldi praised himself lucky that he got off relatively well, but is especially relieved that Theo Pourchaire is okay. Fittipaldi drove into Pourchaire's ART at full speed at the start of the race, which had turned off on the grid.

Pourchaire also posted an update on his health

Pourchaire also let us know how he is doing at the moment. He did so in the evening after the race. He let everyone know that he is generally fine, but that he does not yet know if he can finish the season in Abu Dhabi. "But that is not the most important thing. It was a bad crash and Enzo was injured. I wish him the best possible recovery," said the ART driver.
