Remember Robert Kubica? He was a Polish F1 driver of great talent and bravery who almost severed his arm when he crashed a rally car. Ferrari had their eye on him at one point but the crash ended his F1 career.

He's back, and driving a top level WRC car in the British round of the World Rally Championship.

Hurrah!

There are some rumours that he will drive a WRC-car in M-sport next year, I guess it depends on what Thierry Neuville does. Would love to see him in the top class, he's been good in the WRC2.

I'm excited for this, he's been incredible in WRC2, most of his wins have been measurable in minutes

He's like Kimi Raikkonen, except Kubica's rally career actually went somewhere. Hats off to him, great to see Kubica can still wheel like a devil.

My predictions: If he gets enough test time before the actual event (2-3 days at least) he might have a shot at the Top 5. Either he will just try to make it to the end for experience or he will drive the same way he did in WRC2: Super fast, but in danger of crashing and throwing it away.

I he actually does well Citroen will surely sign him. It is the most attractive team in WRC after VW, as they now have a WTCC project aswell.
