Former (and quite possibly future) Formula One driver, Robert Kubica will take part in two European rally stages, in order to get his strength, reflexes and tempo going, as he plans to return to the world of F1. His recovery from the horrific crash he was involved in, while also at the wheel of a WRC car, has been slow and arduous, yet he seems determined to get back into the driver’s seat of an F1 car.
He will be driving a 2010 WRC-spec Citroen C4, and will take part in the Rally di Como, in Italy, as well as the Rallye du Var, in France, both of which will take place this month. Kubica noted that he is very eager to drive the C4 WRC, a highly-successful car, and a benchmark in the field.
He said: “Rallying is one of my favourite forms of motorsport. Competing in the Rally di Como will above all be an opportunity to get to a feel for the car and learn more about driving it in racing conditions [. . .] The objective will be different for the Rallye du Var. This will be the third time I have taken part, so it’s a rally with which I am already familiar and where I feel comfortable. And first and foremost I want to rack up as many miles as possible and improve in the category.”
