Q&A: Robert Kubica.
Robert Kubica made a dream debut in the Formula Three Euro Series on his return to action at the Norisring, winning his maiden race and finishing on the podium in his second just෴ months after a serious car accident appeared to have curtailed his campaign.
Just like Ayrton Senna did in the past, t🐷he young Pole made a successful start to his F3 career, but it wasn't enough for the ambitious ex-kart racer, who has had to sit out for two months while he recuperated from his pre-season road accident.

Q:
Robert, one week after your extraordinary weekend at the Nor𒅌🐻isring, do you realise the level of your performance?
Robert Kubica:
No, I do not really realise it. I hadn't driven since the test session at Hockenheim in April and, when I arrived at the Norisring, my goal was to be in the top ten and to score points. So I am very surprised with this p🎀erformance, but very hꦫappy!
Q:
Because of your car accident, you missed thꦿe start of the season. At any time, did you think that you wouldn't be coming back to competition?
RK:
Just after the accident, doctors told me that I would have to wait for four months before I would come back intﷺo the series. Then, I underwent surgery in Italy that was very good for me. Doctors told me to wait for two-and-a-half months, so I expected a come b👍ack at the Le Mans race, but I could come back earlier.
Q:
How is your relationship with your team-mate ⛄Ryan Briscoe? Does he regard you as one more opponent 🧸for the championship?
RK:
I think it is very good to be in the same team as Ryan. He is a very good driver and he has a lot of 🌼experience. We do a good job together - we can compare data and it allows me to improve more rapidly. For sure, he is the favourite for the championship. As for me, I hope I will have a place in the top five.
Q:
What is your opinion about the series?
RK:
Before the beg🌞inning of the season, I could choose between the Formula Three Euro Series and the British Championship. But, being 18-years old, I want to drive a lot, with very good teams and very good drivers. So I chose, along with my manager, to take part in the Euro Series.
Q:
A ဣPole in Formula One, will this become reality soon?
RK:
If I have good results and if I work hard, why not? But, at the moment, it is som🥃ething that I don't thinꦕk about.
