'Lewis will be fine for the Belgian GP'

Thursday 28th August 2008

Lewis Hamilton will be fine to race in next weekend's Belgian GP despite almost missing Sunday's Valencia race.

Hamilton suffered severe next pain that almost sidelined him in Spain, resulting in him needing injections in order to compete in Saturday's qualifying and Sunday's race.

However, McLaren CEO Martin Whitmarsh is confident the Brit won't suffer the same fate when he tests at Monza on Friday before heading to Spa for next weekend's race.

"His physical problems are unlikely to disturb his fitness programme and we expect him to make a full recovery for both the Monza test and next week's Belgian GP," Whitmarsh said.
