The Scuderia Ferrari has announced that Felipe Massa had undergone successful emergency surgery at Budapest's AEK military hospital in Hungary.
Massa suffered a cut forehead, skull damage and concussion in the accident caused by a fist-sized spring weighing around 800 grams falling off compatriot Rubens Barrichello's Brawn seconds earlier.
A Defence Ministry official said Massa had been in a "serious, life-threatening condition" before the operation.
"He is in a stable and satisfactory condition," she said.
The surgeons said they expect Massa to be awoken Sunday for a brain scan.
