Not many words, but there is a report.

(the French report says a head injury)

PF1 has picked it up:

I hope it hasn't aggravate that neck injury he sustained whilst racing bikes

BBC news just updated that he is not seriously injured...fingers crossed.

Said he was conscious when medics arrived but very shocked, still conscious upon arrival at hospital, had helmet on so hopefully it may be a superficial wound to the forehead which will bleed a lot but may just give him a stay in hosp for a bit.

Fingers crossed as I like him when he is out of an F1car :-)

Hopefully all will be ok. Just goes to show the value of a helmet no matter how good or experienced you are.

He really needs to be checked out properly, remember what happened to Natasha Richardson.
You have all my best wishes Shuey! Get well soon, especially for your birthday!

Unofficially word from French tv is a Cerebral hemorrhage

Doesn't sound pleasant..

Hope he's ok

Reports now say critical condition

[Durzel]

How on earth could the initial reports say it wasn't serious?

[Gazzab]

Wow. He's not doing well at all. Hope he makes it.

Because head injuries can be that way :-(

[onyx39]

Anyone able to translate this statement from the hospital ?
