Head of the hospital Dr. Vladimir Ahel said this contemporary
machine will mark a significant turning spot in the diagnosis of
various diseases with children.
Last year, the Ecclestones donated a contemporary telephone switch
board to the hospital, and today, the couple announced they would
continue to make donations to the hospital.
The Ecclestones were received by Primorje-Gorski Kotar prefect
Milivoj Brozina earlier today. They discussed a possibility
according to which the "Drobnik" car-race track, near Rijeka, would
become one of the Formula 1 destinations.
An expert commission will be established which is to thoroughly
examine possibilities for the holding of the Formula 1 competition
or other great sports competition in Grobnik, namely to examine
what is to be done in this direction, said Bernie Ecclestone.
