“I still feel slightly dizzy and don’t feel very well yet because of the medication, but I’m getting better all the time. I’ve just left the hospital and I’m making progress. You have to take these things with a positive attitude, you can’t get demotivated, and I’m already thinking about the next race. I want to thank everyone who has asked about me and given me support these last few days. A big thank you to all of them”.
