In an Instagram post, he has now shared two pictures of himself in a hospital bed during his time away.

Sainz also attached a snap of himself smiling as he put on his race overalls, with the bandages from his surgery still visible on his stomach.

Another shot showed him laid down with tubes connected to his face whilst watching his phone through a screen.

He added a celebratory post-race snap from Australia as well before ending the post with a clip of himself stretching with a coach during his recovery.

Sainz captioned the post: “My road to recovery and a little tribute to the people that made this weekend happen.

“Now time to get back training, in good shape and prepare for the next few races. THANK YOU!”
