for those saying this is the end of kubicas career, please understand english newsagencies arent reporting correctly, heres some rough google translation from Polish Onet website:

there you go, broken tibia, had a 2 hour surgery, will be out of hospital on tuesday, and will have about 1 month rehabilitation for this break, much smaller stabiliser in leg then previous break.
so not that bad when you consider the leg will be healed before the arm, which is still progressing, and still expected to make a full recovery, also the injury was not a direct result of the fall, but decalcification? or something to do with the injury of the bone from last years accident. just another hurdle to cross, but he is still miles better then about 10 months ago.
geez, there was some weird things out in the news on this one, things like "kuciba trying to recover too fast by doing skiing and falling and twisting his ankle" or... "1.5 years recovery time for the new break" fact is he slipped in his garden.
those above reports also say kubica has recently been riding bikes, which shows good progress has been made.
when he makes a recovery, he is bound to be wanted by f1 teams, after all, he was one of the best if not the best driver just recently in 2010.
Unfortunantly Kubicas stand is he wont speak till media until he is fully recovered, which will make people more and more predicting he will never return in the coming months.
The only thing i feel that might unfortunantly happen, is there wont be seats in a top team car, he may have to settle for a drive at williams, or something, but im sure a top 4 team would sign him, even if for testing only, we have still yet to hear the full story about the Renault break up.
