Robert Kubica expressed a hint of frustration after seeing a number of points slip through his fingers following the Australian Grand Prix.<\/p>\n
He started from the first row, right behind the pole man, Hamilton. He could clearly hope for a podium but a strategy change caused by the safety car, a small mechanical problem, and a collision with Kazuki Nakajima dashed his chances in this Grand Prix.<\/p>\n
And after being forced to witness the half-triumph of his teammate Nick Heidfeld, who claimed second place behind Lewis Hamilton, Kubica blames fate for preventing him from shining when everything seemed to be going his way.<\/p>\n
\u00ab I enjoyed the weekend, but if I could have brought a few more points for the team, I would be a bit happier today, \u00bb he commented.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Every time I am able to achieve good results something goes wrong, and this time things went wrong. \u00bb<\/p>\n
The Pole doesn’t think that his team opted for a one-stop strategy just to disadvantage him but believes that it was indeed this engine problem that led to his downfall.<\/p>\n
\u00ab The team does the best for the team! And I hope their strategy was the right one. But look at the number of laps I had to cover with these tires, the car was very heavy, so it wasn’t easy. \u00bb<\/p>\n
\u00ab But that wasn’t the biggest problem. The biggest problem was the loss of rhythm. I was particularly slow in acceleration and was losing a lot of time, \u00bb added the driver.<\/p>\n
Despite its promising start that saw BMW-Sauber match its best result in F1, its driver believes it will take time for the team to become strong enough to challenge McLaren and Ferrari.<\/p>\n
\u00ab I think we are close to them, but I will wait another one or two Grand Prix to get a better idea. \u00bb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
