The last two rallies he has mostly been unlucky! I agree with you that points wise it doesn't look and I understand that a boss with fact sheets in his hands wouldn't sign kubica but if you look at what he has actually done, disregarding the middle of the season where he was also slow.

He has won stages on snow, tarmac, gravel, mixed condition etc etc this year. If you go by stage victories he has probably beaten a lot of the WRC field this year.
