F1 | Alfa Romeo, Kubica ready: “Present in case of need!”

These days we are thinking about how to react in the event that a Formula 1 driver tests positive for Coronavirus before or during a race weekend. The world championship will start this weekend in Zeltweg, and there is also a lot of tension given the new protocols to be respected and the various anti-Covid "bubbles" that will have to be created between paddocks and garages. As regards the Ferrari environment, if Vettel or Leclerc were to withdraw, Giovinazzi will take the place in one of the two cars, and at that point the way would open up in Alfa Romeo for Robert Kubica, also involved in the DTM. The Pole made it known that if there were any need, he would not miss the appointment.

“When the track needs me, I'll be there – Kubica said. Combining the two programs will be quite difficult, but we will try to do our best on both sides. We are in a situation that none of us planned for. Taking Raikkonen's place? I'm not the only one who would like to sit in that car, that's why I can't give a definitive answer."
