Robert Kubica thread

I think this Williams opening was his last chance to land a race seat. But at least he'll be back in the F1 paddock and get a few outings. Maybe if there's an injury he'll get a drive.

Would have preferred to see him go into sports cars as there are more potential options there.

Have you not heard about his accident 7 years ago?

If it's very important, why they choose Kubica instead Wehrlein, Di Resta or any other not "handicapped" driver?

Great achievement - but don't forget to mention the other two drivers; Hanson & Ye; a lot of the media seem to have overlooked this (similar to when Hulkenberg won Le Mans).
