ROBERT KUBICA said today that he can still complete a remarkable sporting comeback despite being overlooked for this year’s Williams drive.
Kubica, the 33-year-old Pole who last competed in Formula One more than seven years ago following a life-threatening rally crash in 2010, tested for Williams in the hope of landing a full-time seat.
But the famous British outfit, which has won 16 championships, have instead opted for Russian rookie Sergey Sirotkin to partner Lance Stroll this term, with Kubica given a reserve and development driver role.
