Nov.9 (GMM) Maria de Villota has revealed she will undergo at least two more operations in the near future.
The 32-year-old female driver, who lost her left eye in the incident, suffered serious skull, brain and face injuries earlier this year during a day of straightline testing for Marussia at a UK airfield.She is quoted by the Spanish sports daily Marca as revealing she has "five plates" in her head as a result of the impact with the truck loading ramp, "and they are still not all positioned quite right".And a second forthcoming operation, she explained, is to remedy a problem with the "limited" movement of her mouth, caused by muscle atrophy.The Spaniard said surgeons intend to fix the problems "in one or two operations, if possible".De Villota insisted: "I have never lost my good mood as I think that everything is for the better."
