Bottas ready to return before Thursday’s medical exams
Forfait in Australia, Valtteri Bottas assures he is ready to return to the track for the Malaysian Grand Prix this weekend, for which he will first have to pass the FIA tests.
Sentenced to watch the Australian Grand Prix from the Williams garage after FIA doctors did not allow him to take part in the race, Valtteri Bottas arrives in Sepang with the determination to race.
« After such a frustrating Sunday in Australia, I took the necessary steps to arrive in good shape in Malaysia to race and achieve a good result, » he stated on the team’s official website.
Suffering from severe back pain that required hospitalization following the qualifying session of the season’s opening round, Bottas will, like Fernando Alonso, need to confirm his return to form by successfully passing the FIA medical exams this Thursday.
