After a heart scare, the Grand Prix winner Heikki Kovalainen has shared a positive update.
Heikki Kovalainen shared a positive update following a successful open heart surgery earlier this year. The Finn, once Lewis Hamilton’s teammate at McLaren during the latter’s 2008 championship-winning season, had been diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm. This condition involves the aorta, the body’s main artery, developing a weakened area, increasing the risk of a potentially fatal rupture. Fortunately, Kovalainen’s aneurysm was detected early, allowing for surgery to address the issue, and he recently provided an update on his recovery via Instagram.
