Fernando Alonso has returned home to continue his recovery from a cycling crash last week, Alpine has announced.
The two-time Formula 1 world champion suffered a broken jaw after colliding with a car while training near the Swiss city of Lugano last Thursday.
After a successful corrective surgery that evening, Alonso then declared himself “OK and looking forward to getting 2021 underway” on Friday via Twitter.

And following two days under observation, the 39-year-old was discharged on Monday for a “short period of complete rest”.
But Fernando will soon be back preparing for his big comeback to the F1 grid, with pre-season testing now under a month away.
