María de Villota was released from the Hospital Universitario de La Paz in Madrid after her recent penultimate surgery to reconstruct her cranium and right eye socket.
The seven-hour procedure, led by Chief of Plastic and Reconstruction Surgery, Doctor César Casado, left the medical team ‘satisfied’ about the Spaniard’s onward recovery.
Once Maria de Villota regains sufficent strength, a final operation is set to take place.
According to her father Emilio, she watched the Formula 1 season finale in hospital.
