    Kubica would 'like to try' rallying

    http://www.autosport.com/news/grapevine.php/id/67061


    I'd like to see it happening at some point, hopefully with Raikkonen as well

    Also this quote is pretty true...

    "I like the system of rallying and once you find a good place, you go there and feel closer to the rally. Sometimes in F1 the fans are too far away from what is happening on the track."

    "Rubik's" F1 career has just getting started. For him going to rallying, I would not bother.

    I'd love to see more talented drivers in the WRC. Kimi and Robert would be amazing additions, but the current state of the WRC is atrocious. There is barely any exposure in rallying compared to F1. Fix the system and then entice the drivers by having a credible championship.

    However, I do agree with Robert over the 'wholesome' feel of rallying. The adrenaline rush of being centimeters away from a sliding car is difficult to attain from circuit racing. Trekking across a field and making friends (beer buddies) along the way is also what makes the WRC unique.

    As long as he has an F1 contract with BMW Sauber it will not happen!

    Robert is a potential World Champ title-winner, he should stick to F1
    When you're tired of rallying...you're tired of life

    Course not. But it would be great to see more talented drivers like Kimi and Kubica in WRC somewhere down the track.
