Judging for one season is too soon. Kubica will progress. That´s for sure. Let´s talk next year this time. He has all qualitys to be a top five guy in WRC.

Evans is in his first season too, but fortunately he understands that to learn, you need to finish rallies too.

And do you seriously think that Kubica don't know that? Is he doing this on purpose?

[KKS]

He knows, but not too worried about it

Wasn't it a different event altogether, much like Acropolis in ERC this year? At least wrc.com does not have their results: http://www.wrc.com/en/wrc/results/ar...9-230-8--.html

i doubt it. he was crashing all the time in 2009, and he doesn't seem to have improved a lot since then.
and it is not like he's just unlucky. no, he keeps going off many times during every rally until he's unable to continue.

no doubt kubica is a great driver, but right now it looks like he's just not wrc-material.

About Kubica; it's very good to have a driver like him in the WRC in general. What's the point to be negative about him. He's very quick, one of the fastest already on tarmac. He's for sure a better one than Kimi Raikkonen two seasons long. When are you wrc-potential ? If you win a rally ? Or a top three ? What are you talking about... They can't win all, that will be all the time. You have winners, drivers that are quick but not champion-potential and you have drivers with money and have a good car. So was it in the 70's, 80's, 90's, nowadays and it will be always the same, like in other motor-/autosport divisions.

But for me it's the times a driver set on the stages and Kubica is still in progress (first full season in the top-class of the WRC) and i believe he will be even faster next year. And if Kubica will end 13 times off the road next season (which i doubt) it will not change my opinion about him, i'm happy to see this guy at work, he's good and nice for the fans and Robert's place in the WRC is more than worth !

I agree, there is no point at all. He's nice guy and doesn't deserve negativism. I still think his place is on the circuit (and I believe he secretly hopes one day it'll be).

What are you talking about? In 2009 he was competing in F1...
