Robert Kubica
This young Polish driver showed us a lot of potential when he was in Formula 1. His horrendous crash in 2011 halted his dreams of winning an F1 championship. He spent 18 months in recovery before returning to racing.
His limited mobility resulted in him staying out of an F1 car, and his willpower gave him the ability to compete in Rallying again. He currently competes in WRC and European Rally Championships and is improving his skill in every race his competes in.
His results have proved his potential. He is currently in 3rd in the WRC-2 Championship, and he has taken 2 wins out of the 4 races he has competed in. He also tested the Mercedes DTM car earlier this year in order to check his fitness.
It will be a while before he can be fit enough for a Formula 1 return, but the question is will he be given the chance to return to F1? Right now he should stick to WRC and in a couple of years’ time, look at F1 as an option.
