F1 | Kubica and the 'flight' of the Williams house: "Many people are leaving"
The Polish rider: "It's not an easy period. 2019? There won't be miracles"
A small revolution has been taking place in recent months at Williams: after having overturned its driver line-up, with the exit of Lance Stroll and Sergey Sirotkin and the hiring of Robert Kubica and George Russell, a worrying "flight" has is materializing within the technical organization chart of the Grove team. Kubica himself revealed it to the microphones of Eleven Sports: “It's not an easy period because many people are leaving” - He admitted. “It's hard to find good employees when they see that the team doesn't have a fast car: most people want to work on the best teams”.
Having archived the terrible 2018 World Cup, the 33-year-old Pole is trying to look to next year with serenity and awareness: “I've been in the paddock too long to worry about a car that won't be on track until the end of February. In 2008, at BMW, we were four seconds short of testing, but in two months we turned the situation around, even though Williams is in a different situation. There will be no such miracles, I approach next season very realistically. It would be very positive to be eighth or ninth in Australia, but it's not up to me to set these goals.".
Meanwhile, Kubica explained that he was not yet aware of the name of thetrack engineer who will accompany him on his adventure at Williams: “This was one of the main topics before signing the contract, but for now I don't know” – he commented.
