you are arguing with someone who uses the WRC+ system to compare the speed of cars... have you realised that ?
Kubica is not physically or mentally able to achieve something more at the top of the sport.

Then ask Kubica himself what he have to say about his gearshift system this season ;)
And you are stating this based on ? You are psychologist ? Or any factory team boss ? :rolleyes:
I think for example Matton have diffrent opinion on this case ;)
I am basing it on the fact he has more offs than starts... he is useless in a WRC and a danger for his own health.
Kubica drives because he pays and he will continue to do so...
Kubica drives because he has an ambition. Learning period is still present. Even next year, though we can hope he has matured (in drivers aspect) might be seen some offs. Take under consideration he has a few years in WRC car.
9 minutes long interview with Kubica, in polish but with english subtitles:

Carrying on the conversation from the News thread regarding the Tanak announcement, and weak driver line-ups: the M-Sport driver line up for 2015 is probably the weakest ever, certainly for Ford. Realistically, they have no chance of winning any rallies, and Malcolm knows that. As someone else said, I'm not sure M-Sport will be able to even get on the podium. I don't know, it seems to me that with each passing year M-Sport has more in common with Kronos or Grifone, just running customer cars, with little interest in being competitive, or actually winning, with the only difference really being that Malcolm still pretends that they are trying to be competitive.
Well, I don't think it is that weak. We should expect lot more from both drivers in their non-first WRC season. Especially Tanak. Evans seems to have work on his gravel speed, but with asphalt Rallies he should be ok fighting for podium I think.
All-in-all this is the 3rd team this year, who knows may be next they'll fight for second.
Maybe you're right, but I think they will be 4th out of 4 next year...
