Frentzen made to wait for all-clear
German driver Heinz-Harald Frentzen will remain in hospital until at least Thursday as he recovers from a bad crash in Hockenheim

The former Formula One driver suffered concussion and bruising after crashing his Opel into a tyre barrier during the German Touring Car series race on Sunday but now says he is on the mend.
"The headache is getting better," he said from hospital on Tuesday. "If all goes well I think I can leave in the next few days."
Frentzen lost consciousness after the accident and was treated at the circuit medical centre before being taken to the casualty hospital in Ludwigshafen.
He will undergo another CT scan before doctors give him the all-clear to leave hospital.
"I'm glad that I got off so lightly," he said on Monday. "I don't remember the accident."
Frentzen went into the tyre barrier on lap 30 in the Hockenheim race, the last of the season in the DTM championship.
The German raced in Formula One for 10 years before moving to the DTM series in 2004.
