Gino Rea's accident which occurred at the beginning of August during free practice for the Suzuka 8 Hours was terrible, but his recovery was miraculously spectacular.
The British pilot left Japan on Monday September 5 by a specialist air ambulance. He was transported from hospital in Japan to the neurological rehabilitation center in London where he began the intensive rehabilitation needed to make the best possible recovery.
However, after this great relief, it turned out that Gino Rea was diagnosed with diffuse axonal injury as a result of the impact he suffered during the accident. It is a complex brain injury that affects a person's physical, cognitive, and emotional functions, and unfortunately, their short- and long-term memory has been greatly affected. Recovery varies from person to person and can take a few months or a few years.
As a result, his family opened a fund to cover the medical costs incurred and published a full account of the situation.
