British motor racing legend Stirling Moss returned home on Thursday after a prolonged stay in hospital battling a chest infection.
The 87-year-old was admitted to hospital on Dec. 22 in Singapore, where he had been due to embark on a Christmas cruise with friends.
"After some 134 days in hospitals, we are delighted to be able to say that Sir Stirling is now at home. He is thrilled to be back where he belongs," a statement said on his website (www.stirlingmoss.com).
"He still has a substantial amount of recovery to undertake but says that he has determination and a great pit crew."
Often described as the greatest F1 driver never to win the world championship, Sir Stirling Moss competed in 66 Grand Prix between 1951 and 1961, collecting 16 wins and 16 pole position along the way.
