Oliveira has been transported to the hospital for further evaluation to determine if surgery will be required.

Trackhouse later confirmed: "After crashing mid-session, Miguel was transferred to the circuit medical centre for checks where it was established that his right wrist was fractured. 

"He was then flown, by helicopter, to the hospital in Mataram (Lombok) for a CT scan which highlighted that Miguel suffered a multiple fracture of the radius bone. 

"The fracture has been successfully stabilized and Miguel is alert and will fly back to Portugal for a surgical consultation. 

"Further information will be published when available and in the meantime everyone at Trackhouse Racing wishes Miguel a speedy recovery."

Oliveira will now miss the remainder of the 2024 Indonesian Grand Prix and will most likely sit out the Japanese Grand Prix next week.
