Kevin Magnussen is set to go under the knife just weeks before the start of the new Formula 1 season.
The Haas racer's preparations for the new season look set to be disrupted after he began to feel pain in his left wrist. During a visit to his doctor, it was discovered that he had a problem which requires surgery.
"I had a sore wrist so I went to the doctor to have it looked at and they found a cyst that needs to be removed now so I can be ready for the F1 season," said the Dane. "It's a harmless procedure, but I probably need to rest for a couple of weeks afterwards."
