An IndyCar driver's wife has revealed some serious injuries sustained in a recent bike crash, including a punctured lung and head trauma.

Details of her ongoing recovery were posted on Instagram over the weekend, with some pictures of a number of nasty cuts and bruises as well as the admission that she still has no memory of the accident in which she sustained them.

Romain Grosjean drove for 10 seasons in F1, leaving the sport for good after an infamous crash at the Bahrain Grand Prix which saw his car split in two and become engulfed in fire.

The Swiss-born driver then made the switch to IndyCar, completing four seasons with varying degrees of success before finding himself without a seat for 2025, switching to the IMSA SportsCar Championship this year.

She suffered a collapsed lung, broken ribs, and head trauma in the crash, and has a plethora of nasty cuts and bruises on her hands and legs, in addition to a black eye.

In her first post after the crash, she wrote: “Bike accident, but I can't tell you more... I have no memory of it. Anyway... Thank you for your messages and support, it's lovely! Hope to get home as soon as possible. In the meantime, I have a husband that handles all 3 kids.

"Gotta give this story is crazy. I still don't understand what happened to me or why I'm in so much pain...”

She then posted a follow-up on Sunday afternoon, writing: “I showed you my head. Here's the rest, 5 days after the accident. I think I can make a cute road safety commercial! Honestly the bike helmet saved my life. Still having drains but hope to get out of hospital soon.

"At home, I have 3 little cuties waiting for me, taken care of by their super daddy. That's a good job! Thanks also to neighbours and friends from all sides, who help as much as possible, and send all the courage needed to get out of this hell! Yours truly..."
