The expert doubts about Kubica. "If Sirotkin had more money, he would keep his place in Williams"

Robert Kubica, Ben Anderson, Autosport and Formula 1 reporter In his opinion, Pole became Williams race driver mainly thanks to the financial contribution of his sponsors.

Kubica last raced in Formula 1 in 2010. His return after such a long break is a big event, but not everyone is convinced that Williams made the right decision.

– If Sirotkin had more money, he would stay in the car. I do not think Kubica is the first choice of this team. For the moment, his pace is too low. In this year's tests, he lost a few tenths of a second. We will see if Pirelli tires will improve with more kilometers and better knowledge of Pirelli tires. Because during tests last year in Abu Dhabi, he was like a beginner. He still lacks experience behind the wheel of the car, which makes it slower than it was before. – Anderson thinks.

The Autosport reporter believes that Kubica's remarks will be valuable to Williams' engineers, but that George Russel will be faster on the track.

– Pole has a great experience in this field, it is phenomenal in the simulator. Many groups have seen him during his work and have been under an incredible impression. At the beginning of the season, Kubica's voice will be more taken into account, because George is only a beginner. However, he has a very great talent – Anderson evaluates.
