Robert Kubica will not not be racing for the team any longer, with Nicholas Latifi being roped in. However, Kubica will not remain idle in 2020 as he recently completed a DTM test with BMW.

“I think as a group, with me involved, we haven’t done enough in the last 24 months,” Kubica told the media. “I am here exactly more than 24 months and when you sit down and George is commenting the same comments as I’m highlighting.”

Following the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Robert Kubica confessed that the season did little to adjudicate his skill. He wanted to know if he was still as fast as he was before his accident.

He affirmed that when racing at the front, the feeling is far different from being a backmarker. On a more personal note, he was disappointed with his less-than-stellar results.
