Robert Kubica has hailed Kimi Raikkonen as one of Formula 1’s best drivers despite his age. The Pole, Williams’ driver, made his long-awaited return in Formula 1 this season and also shared his thoughts on Kimi Räikkönen:
“Kimi is still one of the best driver in Formula 1 even though he has some age now. He has been a bit unlucky this season but he’s still good.” – he said, as reported by the British media earlier this week – “I would like to be Kimi’s team-mate, he is a bit special but I like his lifestyle. He would be one of the best team-mates what you could have.” – the Pole added.
Robert Kubica was tipped as a future world champion during his first stint in F1 in which he claimed 12 podium finishes and won the 2008 Canadian GP.
But a one-off participation in the 2011 Ronde di Andora rally dramatically changed the course of his career as he crashed into a church wall and suffered extensive damage to his right hand, arm and leg. He underwent several hours of surgery and suffered a partial amputation of his forearm.
