he just said what many people believe... when you have accidents at this rate something serious will happen sooner or later...
No, it is not, but some journalist has asked him, so he had answered. Mr. "Competence" has good (good as in relatively right) opinions. Yes, this article is 2 years old indeed, now he is in WRC, that is lot different.Quote:

The main problem with kubica is that he is not a good rally driver... he is a dangerous one, he cannot judge the grip levels, the braking points, nothing... he is having accidents when going flat out, when cruising and it is getting a bit out of hand. You can claim he is learning but having 3 accidents in 4 days after a year full of crashes means he is not a good learner.
That's really awesome video!! Thanks!Quote:

funny that people few years back were writing about Meeke that he is crashing too much and he is done, and now are praising him like crazy
or Tanak
I wish Kubica all the best, I think he deserves to win and achieve his goals after what happened to him and the way he has reacted. I think he is a great persone and hope he will get what he wants.
BUT
Rallys are not circuits, they are 300/400 kms long, and they last 3/4 days. You can't have that approach. His problems are not the crashes but the fact he doesn't want to learn the lesson. It's a pity. (imho)
Could you describe that approach and what are the lessons please?
It's being discussed many times, but good answers can be found in "Nose end first" thread. It is a good start.Quote:

The lesson is not that complicated, you can't take all that risks on every inch of the road on every stage. I've liked the Makinen's quote that someone has already reported. I think it says everything.
Why are most Kubica fans getting into an aggressive defensive mode all the time?
I think everyone admires Kubica's efforts and complications and want him to achieve his goals, but that doesn't mean people can't have an opinion about him. And you can't deny he's crashing a lot, can you?
No need to be defending him so franatically.
Of course we can't deny it. We see it, we know that is the area he must improve badly.
Why in defense mode? If someone calls him a nobody etc, that he has no place in WRC, then yes defense mode is on, because who are they to decide others people life when in fact they didn't achieve a fraction of what he did. My approach is to live your life, and let others live too.
Or when he is called a liar (lost brakes) based on a short video.
I for one can't understand why people want him to quit, that's just cowardly approach.
Why don't YOU try to "live your life" and dont scream every time when somebody insults your hero? Would be quite simpler for everybody.
that stands visa versa as well genius...Quote:

Unlike the harcore Kubica fans here might think, m posting that article doesn't mean that I wouldn't like him to succeed, quite the opposite, I hope he becomes a serious contender. I'm just afraid that he might hurt himself and the image of the sport if he continues like he doesQuote:

I don"t know what subject you are making a career studying forever, but I know it is neither logic, rhetoric or anything mechanical, but could you explain to us how in the world you have determined thatQuote:

Or conversely, cars with "better designs" could be smashed into things , tear off a corner, plunge into a crowd of people crushing 3-4, but it didn't hurt them to have a 1230kg smoosh them?
Your opinion is based on what?
