LONDON (AP) Former Formula One driver Stirling Moss has broken both ankles and hurt his back in a fall down an elevator shaft at his London home.
The 80-year-old Briton was taken to the Royal London Hospital on Saturday after falling three floors.
A statement on Moss' Web site says he stepped through the open elevator door without noticing the elevator had malfunctioned and stopped on the floor above.
Moss broke four bones in a foot and chipped four vertebrae but did not lose consciousness. The statement says his ``body still has the same resilience to injury as it did in his racing days.''
Moss won 16 Grand Prix races but never the world championship. He was runner-up four times.
