Marcus Ericsson has been confirmed fit to race in Malaysia this weekend, despite being involved in a cycling accident this week.
The Sauber driver reportedly hit a chicken during a ride in Thailand, he later confirmed the reports on social media.
"Lucky to get away with only bruises and scratches," said the Swede, posting photos of his injuries and a bent bicycle wheel.
"Hitting a (big) chicken doing 45kph is not recommended but I'm all patched up and ready for the weekend," Ericsson added.
Ericsson confirmed that the chicken escaped unharmed.
