How Kubica found the answer to his own incredible F1 challenge
Based purely on results, Robert Kubica's Formula 1 comeback was not a success. But that misses the point - to return to the grand prix sphere (and score a point) was a phenomenal achievement in itself
There were two Robert Kubicas in Formula 1 in 2019. One was the underachiever, obliterated by rookie team-mate George Russell, regularly hinting at dark forces working against him.
The other was the sensational comeback story after an injury that left his right arm and hand permanently damaged, and a repair and rehabilitation process that took more out of Kubica than most of us can ever know.
