Sponsor & Williams still support Kubica
Robert Kubica's major sponsor is continuing to support the Pole.
On his high-profile return to Formula 1, the 34-year-old has been consistently outperformed by his rookie teammate George Russell.
But team boss Claire Williams says she is happy with Kubica.
"We needed a driver like Robert with his engineering and technical intelligence," she said.
"It's not an easy season for him, but neither Robert nor George is able to show all their skills in this car. But Robert is doing everything I expect from him."
Also happy is Daniel Obajtek, the boss of Kubica and Williams' major sponsor PKN Orlen.
"Robert is fighting very well," he told Polskie Radio. "He is a Pole and we want to support him."
Meanwhile, Claire Williams has admitted that her father, team founder Sir Frank Williams, is no longer in charge at Grove.
"Frank no longer leads the team," she said.
"Of course, I keep him informed about everything that is happening and he understands our situation. He also went through difficult times with Williams.
"People think that my dad would be furious about what is happening, but Frank is a realist who really understands the ups and downs of Formula 1," Williams added.

Claire Williams.amd Frank Williams both know Kubia tries hard but he hasn't got it anymore BUT they wont allow him to walk out leaving a money trail behind him - so yep- Kubia stays in the Williams seat!! The paid driver thing needs to stop - it is destroying the F1 sport!!
1¹ We all love Russel and he will be great someday, but at the moment he's not as good as Kubica. Pole has even worst car than him, and difference between them is not that big. Look, last time when was raining and car wasn't important as much as usually, he got the point, Russel on the other hand still have nothing. I really want to see how Kubica would ride in a proper car.
We all know that the Williams car isn't performing,(McLaren has just endured this and is starting to see the light at last), but now that Patrick Head is back with Williams we can expect some sort of leap forward with design and performance and put the team where we know it can achieve greatness again,perhaps with drivers that are young enough to still have fire in the belly.
