42 days after his very spectacular accident suffered at Phillip Island, of which you can see the gallery on our site, John Mc Phee finally received the green light to get back on the plane and return home.
This will end a difficult period during which the Scottish driver had to recover from a concussion, lung problems and a broken thumb with the left hand.
Operated last week to remove the screws from the first operation on his hand, he informed us of the support provided in this ordeal by Vic Soussan, a former Grand Prix driver, who did what he could to lessen the feeling of loneliness of a driver stranded alone on the other side of the world.
Le winner of the Czech Republic Grand Prix will now be able to enjoy the end of year celebrations at home, at the end of a story which is reminiscent of that of a certain Alexis Masbou, isolated in Italy for several weeks in 2012 due to the strike at the hospital where he was waiting to be treated…
Welcome home, John!
