Forza Robert!
Uhh, big thig, you follow Robert closely or have that level of empathy to imagine him in a right way...
I'll only put in short what I heard from him (officials in English and Polish)
Surprising thing - weight of the car (about 100kg more than he was used to) influencing the way you negotiate corners.
Turning point during the tests - lunch break - as he had a time to analyze his observations, name them, give them priorities and solve/use them. And he felt much more comfortable in the afternoon session, gaining a lot of confidence (relaxed he said).
It was his personal target.
So after the test he said he would love to drive next morning, even only 10 laps, just to check in practice his next conclusions.
That's why he told elier, he would need 2 day of testing to be 100% ready.
On his state of mind... only one sentence, you can
read it on BBC:
"In the end, I decided first I have to wake up in the morning happy, then I can start to be a racing driver." R. Kubica
To end this not so short words - interview worth more than 1000G words
