Mika Salo has been asked to undergo an examination by FIA after large amounts of carbon fibre dust were recently discovered in his lungs.
The Finnish newspaper Ilta-Sanomat says the governing body wants to examine the 38 year old former F1 driver to determine the health risks for other drivers.
"There was really a lot of that dust in my lungs," said Salo, who drove for seven teams - including Ferrari - from 1994 to 2002.
"If I have this much of it, how much will Michael Schumacher, who has driven 10 years longer than me, have?"
