Roman Grosjean will miss the Sahir Grand Prix due to burns sustained in a fire following an accident in Sunday’s race in Bahrain. Despite his injuries, the Haas driver remains strong and wants to get back behind the wheel by the end of the season in Abu Dhabi. According to team leader Gunther Steiner, the decision will depend on Roman’s health.
“Roman wants to perform in Abu Dhabi,” Gunther Steiner told a news conference on Tuesday. – I spoke to him yesterday and he really wants to get back behind the wheel in Abu Dhabi. I responded to Roman to improve. We will return to this question on Monday next week. Then we can assess your health and the possibility of returning.
We have a lot of time right now. Pietro Fittipaldi is here, Roman is also here. It all depends on how you feel. I’m not in a rush to make a decision, it will depend on the state of your health.
Psychologically, he is ready to return, but it all depends on his physical condition. On Monday Roman was in a good mood, today he’s in a good mood too. He does everything he can to improve and get back behind the wheel in Abu Dhabi. This shows that you want to continue.
I spoke to one of the doctors. They are trying to do something about their burns, but I don’t know what it is exactly. He will spend one more night in the hospital, but this is more for precautionary reasons. Everything is fine and the doctors are very happy. “
Speaking about the accident, Gunther Steiner noted that Roman remembers getting out of the burning car, but doesn’t know what caused the incident: “He remembers getting out of the car. He explained it to me very well, but then he asked me how I got there. I replied: “You ran towards Kvyat’s car, on the left front wheel, they turned you over and threw you against the wall.”
I don’t want to speak for Roman and claim that he doesn’t remember. I don’t think he knew what he was doing. I wouldn’t say he lost his memory. I don’t think he remembers the moment of the accident because everything happened too fast.
I don’t think I ever saw the replay, but again, I don’t want to be responsible for it. I didn’t ask Roman if he saw the replay or not; this was his decision and he didn’t want to put him in an awkward position. “
