    It's like in alpine skiing - to show best time in 1st intermediate, then crash in 2nd one, geting back on track - show some good times in following splits, then crash once again and in the finish, after taking 56th place, start to tell about your astonishing pace and skills.

    I am the judge.. there very few people more qualified than me to decide. Because i am honest.

    Kubica had his lessons during 2014. Why should he step back to ERC? No driver steps back having driven on a certain level...
    Like wishing Mikko to go back and drive Finnish championship? Never happen. Let´s hope Kubica finds his funding and fullfills 2015 season in WRC in a good way.

    He is not good enough for the WRC thats why...

    when you are a welterweight you do not fight heavyweights with 12oz gloves because you get mauled and kubica learned that. He should step back if he wants to continue in rallying...

    if he wants to retire or drive in circles on tracks then it is ok also. but if he wants to do a mans sport then he should realise where his place is.

    Tanak did it (not intentionally though) and maybe will pay off in 2015. Kubica does not have either top speed or consistency. He must improve a lot in both fronts if he wants to be a serious contender, which I want to believe is his target in long term. Probably it is easier to find the consistency while driving near the limit with a slower car in WRC2 or ERC rather than WRC. If he continues like last season in 2015 for sure it will be his last

    I believe the next year will get better results,i dont know of course how much better.of course he is not ready to find the limits of a wrc (i dont talk for one or two stages)but dont forget that he started with support category in the wrc he won it(no serious competion) and the next logical step was the big category.which driver who wins the wrc2 would leave the wrc to compete to erc if he has the budget for wrc NO ONE.

    Kubica only fault is he crashed. Too much speed and cutting as a result maybe caused it but saying he´s not good enough? No. Then who are good enough to match Seb and Seb in 2015. Hardly anyone.
    We have to be realistic and look at the future which must bring more drivers competing in the top five positions. I think Kubica can be one, there are others also.

    Ruling out drivers on 5-10 level just finds out more of those who does.
