I say everything breaks for a reason, not that the driver is always the reason. Sure there was something wrong that caused the injectors to fail, otherwise they would keep functioning well... Sure people at VW will have done a lot of research to prevent it in the future, and so far it hasn't happened again... Also for Kubica's breaking wheels there must be a reason, at some point the stress on the wheel must have been bigger than what the wheel can handle. For example in Ypres Neuville retired with broken wheel some years ago (2011). It was on the very first stage. He took some cut that everyone took, but in the exit he was hitting the edge of the tarmac (getting back on the road with the wheel) quite hard, which caused the wheel to break, several other drivers took the same line there but got away with it. Do you blame the wheel or the driver? Or make it simple and call it "bad luck"?

We need a lot more passionate committed non works competitors like Kubica in our sport for it to progress into the future.
What we don't need is people making excuses for people such as him when they do not beat the works drivers. There is no disgrace in being the highest placed non-works competitor in any competition.
There is no disgrace in trying your absolute best to beat the works drivers either. To try and to fail is much better than to not try and then give up.
Kubica could never be accused of under achieving

5 or 6 SS wins and a record of DNF in the season.
I think some other drivers could be much more successfull in this if they want to, or if the budget let them to.
Kris Meek would for example=)
Don't get me wrong I like Kubica but..... let's state the facts he is hottlapper, on a short distance, thats not a rally driver should be.Last edited by spark13; 3rd October 2015 at 23:47.
