"He is thrilled to be back where he belongs," the statement said on Thursday.
"He still has a substantial amount of recovery to undertake but says that he has determination and a great pit crew."
Moss, who is widely regarded as the greatest grand prix driver never to win the world championship, would be watching this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix from the comfort of his own bedroom, the statement added.
Moss drove alongside Argentina's five-time world champion Juan Manuel Fangio at Mercedes and finished runner-up four years in a row from 1955.
