Lawrence Stroll hails 'fighter' Kubica
Robert Kubica appears to be headed towards a third driver role for 2020 at Racing Point.
Earlier, with the Pole looking likely to combine an F1 role with a DTM race seat with BMW, it appeared that Haas would be his 2020 destination.
But Poland's sport.pl claims that Racing Point owner Lawrence Stroll is a big Kubica fan.
"He doesn't let failure bring him down," billionaire Stroll said.
"He falls but gets up. In sports and in life, I have not seen someone who is so determined, such a fighter."
However, Kubica - who has lost his seat at Williams - told the Polish broadcaster TVP that his horror rallying crash of 2011 affected him badly.
"There were a few nights where I cried," the 35-year-old said. "20 years of passion and work changed in one second.
"I had to mentally as well as physically rehabilitate myself. The turning point was when I did not think about how to do something, but I was glad that I could do it at all."
For instance, he says something as simple as tying his shoes is no longer easy.
"As a rule, I am lazy and do not tie them at all, but if I did it like before the accident, it would not be possible," said Kubica.
"After some time, the mind and body find a new way, and it is the final result that is important."

Good strategy. Let the big dog throw the puppy a bone. Pandering is alive and well at Racing Point.
You are always putting drivers down, is it because you never got to beiing a F1 pilot?
This is not about putting down any driver, certainly not KUB who deserves utmost respect. The comment is on point regarding big $$$ Stroll pandering to get his own way. Sorry if the post confused you. Perhaps english is your second language.
any comments against ROR are not printed even though he tries to be confrontable with his barbed comments. I am English by birth and for a yank to say English maybe not be my first language is stupid. I realise now you actually work for F1 fansite otherwise you could not have emailed me direct. I wont bruise your inflated EGO anymore because I wont look at the site any more. There is not a of interest anyway on it.
