Robert Kubica and the return to F1: ‘I was in the wrong place at the wrong time’

Robert Kubica e o regresso à F1: ‘Estive no sítio errado na altura errada’

After eight years, Robert Kubica returned to Formula 1 with Williams in 2019. However, he did not have great success – partly because the Grove team was in a performance and results crisis.

The Pole’s career was interrupted by a serious accident in a rally in 2011, and despite permanent physical problems, he managed to return not only to motorsport, but also to the premier category.

In an interview with Przeglad Sportowy, Kubica reflected on what went wrong in his reentry into F1: ‘Over the years, I have come to the conclusion that you don’t have to compete at all costs. I want to find the right environment where I know I feel good. The current situation gives me a certain awareness of mental comfort. The second thought associated with the return to Formula 1 is that from a sporting point of view, it couldn’t have been worse when I finished at Williams’.

In the opinion of the winner of the 2008 Canadian GP, despite the respect for the British team, it was not the right place to return to the grid: ‘Honestly, I have a lot of respect for this team because there were many people there who really knew what they were doing. Unfortunately, I was in the wrong place at the wrong time’.

In the next season, Kubica will be full-time in the premier category of the World Endurance Championship (WEC), where he will drive an AF Corse Ferrari 499P.
