He won almost half of these stages (from 1 to 10) and they didn't mention that.
I had not seen any of those summaries, however I have seen the daily highlights both on WRC+ and Motors TV and I saw him many times. So the fans are mad just becuse he wasn't shown in 3-4 minute clips on Youtube?! Ok then.Quote:

All in all I think that was a bit unfair from them, but fans overreacted.
Half of these summaries are busy with Loeb. Now I'm frustrated too:DQuote:

Thanks in advance...
Gerber:
Długo biłem się z myślami, czy coś naskrobać a propos ostatniego rajdowego weekendu Roberta Kubicy i Maciek Szczepaniak, ponieważ za każdym razem gdy się odzywam, zostaję posadzony o zazdrość, lub podsyłają mi maść na ból tylniej części ciała. Otóż tak nie jest. Mam duży sentyment do RK, a z Mackiem staram się być w stałym kontakcie, i wspierać go w trakcie rajdu. Wiem, jak mi tego brakowało, być daleko od domu. Ale nie o tym ta rozprawka.
To co Robert z Mackiem zrobili na Monte Carlo to kolejny przełom. To gigantyczny krok na ich drodze do zwycięstwa. Wiem jak ciężko pracowali nad tym aby tak szybko jechać, bo sam miałem okazję ciężko z Robertem pracować. A potem widziałem jakie efekty ta praca mu przynosi. Pamiętam oesy z Mille MIglia, pamiętam wynik na Du Var, pamiętam też gorzkie momenty, jak awaria na 1 oesie Monte, kiedy po wielotygodniowych przygotowaniach auto przejechało 1,5 km oesowego. Dla świata rajdowego to normalne iż przygotowania niejednokrotnie są cięższe od rajdu, ale dla komentujących pieniaczy , zjadaczy białego chlebka z 2-letnim służbowym Focusem pod blokiem, przejechanie 50-cio kilometrowego oesu, w zmiennych warunkach (błoto, śnieg, lód, asfalt) i wygranie go z kierowcami którzy jechali Monte 10 raz, to łatwizna, podobna do wyjścia z psem na spacer. Bo skąd mogą wiedzieć że na testach robi się setki, tysiące kilometrów, aby być przygotowanym.Robert i Maciek tego dokonali, i to nie jest ich ostatnie słowo. I każdy kto mówi, lub pisze że "Robert dobrze wypadł na rajdzie" może co najwyżej mocno ściskać kierownicę swojego Focusa, i to pewnie jedną ręką, bo drugą ma na lewarku, kręcąc kierownicą "na pizza-mena", wciskając sprzęgło przy każdym hamowaniu. Jedynie na co takich komentujących stać to rozpędzenie się do 170 km/h na odśnieżonej autostradzie.
Jakie moralne prawo mają Ci mistrzowie kierownicy, do oceniania kogoś, kto nie kończy rajdu z powodu awarii (a nawet jeśli ma tak zwanego "offa" to przynajmniej wynikającego z rywalizacji na zawodach), którzy nie potrafią pokonać drogi do pracy bez wypadku. W 2013 roku doszło, w Polsce, do 35.000 wypadków na drogach ! A zginęło 3300 osób. Zatem jak można oceniać kogoś, kiedy samemu nie potrafi się bezpiecznie jeździć i to z prędkościami dużo niższymi niż podczas rajdu.
Dlatego też popieram to co Maciek Baran napisał. Wysyp komentujących kretynów, bez pojęcia, nie tylko o rajdach samochodowych, ale i samej jeździe samochodem ma apogeum. I nie wiem jak temu zaradzić.
who is gerber ?
Jakub Gerber former Co of Kubica and the one who was sitting next to him when that brutal accident happened.
all nice Kubica passes from Monte in one video

ex-codriver... I think he had the accident in italy with him...Quote:

EDIT: My Polish isn't that good but it's quite emotional and I understand it's a reaction to something written elsewhere. Basically he says he disagrees with all the critics of Kubica and admires what Kubica achieved and recently showed on the stages of RMC. For exact translation wait for some Polish guys, from me it would be too imprecise.
If the WRC Promoter truly didn't want to include him in there programmes for some crappy reason, why would they have put a camera in his car? He featured in the LIve programmes that he was around for, so they clearly weren't that deliberate in trying to avoid him.
Seems like the fans are angry over nothing.
These are not fans... just some nobodies who think Kubica actually worth something... once his sponsors go he is done. And i predict that to be sooner than later...
The only nobody is you. You bring nothing to this forum except some negativity, there is no value in you and your comments. No content whatsoever, only smartass replies.Quote:

i must say you guessed correctly on your second sentence...
Easy thuGG. n|o|t is trying to bring people down to his level and then beat by experience ;)
N.O.T in this Forum is like Kubica in rallys.
He will never have a fair conversation which is the forum purpose like Kubica will never win a rally wich is rally's purpose
But he is funny and useful for the forum like Kubica is spectacular and useful for rally.
(Just kidding N.O.T, no offence, I'm new here but I couldn't resist to write this) :)
And everyone forgive my bad english, hope it is understandable.
bar talks, there is a thread for them
Some shots from my Monte! Great show this year, unfortunately was not a good idea on Saturday organize the leg in that way...

Loeb's crashing place for other drivers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSXxvT_t6Hk
About Kubica and TV: I was watching the daily highlights for leg 1 including thursday and friday stages. They show only his spin on thursday night and nothing about his 3 stage wins out of 6 ss on friday. I was a little bit surprised not mentioning his results but OK it's director's decision. On highlights about 2-nd and 3-th leg he has some footage as the others drivers. So nothing special just take it easy guys and enjoy every driver in WRC.
Loeb vs Ogier

And then "Stages 9-10 Rallye Monte Carlo 2015" material with stage 9 cancelled where Kubica won the stage 10 by a huge margin, but they were showing i.e. Sordo (nothing against him and his car is nice and colorful) driving in road mode. In my opinion this and what rage82 just wrote is what the fuss was about.
Great. Acceleration wise I don't see any visible difference, so VW being miles ahead of everyone is not true.Quote:

Engine wise I can't notice any differences and I don't think anyone can provide better proofs than such videos. There is eight heavy acceleration zones in the video and Ogier was not running away from Loeb - they were neck and neck almost all the time.Quote:

Ogier was little sliding for fun, so the car lost little in acceleration, besides, he was just cruising at that point. Nothing is certain.Quote:
