The reasons Sergey Sirotkin landed a Williams Formula 1 seat for 2018, and Robert Kubica didn’t, are discussed in the latest edition of The Autosport Podcast.
Kubica landed a reserve and development driver role at Williams and there is still hope that he could return to race action in the future.
Ben Anderson and Lawrence Barretto join Edd Straw to explain what the performances of Sirotkin and Kubica in the post-Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Pirelli tyre test told us about the drivers – and what role budget played in the team’s decision.
There’s also insight into Kubica’s ultimate potential, and how much performance he still might be able to unlock with his test and Friday outings for Williams this year.
