Fernando Alonso's manager has revealed the Spaniard is to spend a third night in hospital following his crash during testing on Sunday.

Luis Garcia Abad has told Spanish media that the McLaren driver will remain in hospital for as long as needed in order that everyone can be sure that all is OK.

"The impact was quite hard," he is quoted as saying. "We have to be sure everything is fine, so I can't say if it is one, two or three days more."

All of which appears to be in stark contrast to claims that he was "fine" and "uninjured" on Sunday.

Whilst McLaren's statement yesterday insisted that the crash was due to the strong winds at the track, particularly at that corner (T3), speculation continues, and the Spanish driver's prolonged stay in hospital is not going to help the situation.
