From Kubica's wikipedia page:
In 2006, Kubica became the official reserve driver for the BMW Sauber Formula One team. In August 2006, Kubica's teammate, Jacques Villeneuve, complained about headaches after his accident during the German Grand Prix; he was deemed unfit to race by the team, against his own belief, and Kubica was chosen by the team management to replace him at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Kubica qualified ninth, beating his more experienced teammate Nick Heidfeld. In the race, he finished in seventh place, but was disqualified after the race for having an underweight car. Villeneuve decided to leave the BMW Sauber team soon after the race, and Kubica's position in the team for the remainder of the season was confirmed by BMW.
He does love a moan but I think it might be a Canadian thing Bret the hitman Hart is much the same in wrestlingskoop wrote:Thanks you guys.
Getting pissed because the test driver drives better then you? Better stop crying and step up your game. But it's Jaques, he always seems to be complaining about something/one

Laps were consistent and fast, more than enough according different reports. Everything is quite because there is nothing new to tell.everythingisawesome wrote: ↑13 Sep 2017, 14:07As much as i'd love to see Kubica back in F1.... After his Hungary test, everything has gone quiet.
You have to be open to the possibility that he may have performed well in the test with regards to his injury, but not at the level expected for an F1 driver.
Saying that, I don't think we'll see Kubica race an F1 car again.
I do hope this is not true, if it was just f*ck Renault. Unless Kubica was aware of this and he accepted jus to have some expure and show the he is still capable of driving a F1.WaikeCU wrote: ↑14 Sep 2017, 14:01From what I've read is that Robert is now on his own, since Renault have released him. Not entirely sure why, but it feels like Renault made use of him just for the sake of publicity. When he had tested for the team, social media and press must have reached a boiling point with the excitement and hype. Renault just made good use of the exposure.
Only option for Robert now is either Williams or Sauber, but that's not easy since they don't have any records on performance after his injury.
To me Hungary testing is the last bit we have ever seen Robert in an F1 car, sadly.
