MONACO (Reuters) - Sauber's German driver Pascal Wehrlein, who missed the first two races of the Formula One season due to a back injury, will have another scan next week after crashing in Sunday's Monaco Grand Prix.

The 22-year-old's car was pitched into the fence and tyre wall at the entrance to the tunnel after McLaren's Jenson Button made a highly optimistic attempt to go through on the inside of the corner.
