Santiago Villa, the Colombian-born racer who was badly burned in a refueling accident last month at Daytona International Speedway, has been transferred from the Orlando Regional Medical Center to The Hubbard House rehabilitation facility, in Orlando, Florida, for further treatments. “It’s good to be outside again,” Santiago wrote in an e-mail to Roadracingworld.com Friday. “This has been a difficult time for me and my family. I just want to say thanks to all the people that have sent me cards and have called and all the people that make me stay positive. I’m not very happy right now. It’s been difficult just looking at myself in a mirror, but that’s life and I just have to get better.” The mailing address of The Hubbard House is: Santiago Villa Venegas The Hubbard House, Room 18 29 West Miller St. Orlando, FL 32806
