A woman racing driver whose Formula One car crashed into a support truck during testing has lost her right eye, her team has revealed.
Marussia's Maria De Villota suffered serious head and facial injuries in the accident at Duxford Airfield on Tuesday.
She was treated at the trackside before being taken to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge.
Ms De Villota was conducting a straight-line aero test at the former Second World War site.
Theories suggested the anti-stall mechanism on the car kicked in as she approached a makeshift pit area, propelling her into the truck at 20-30mph.
