Kubica coming out to car from training session.
Certainly looking in overall better shape than what I feared.
Maybe there is hope after all to see him back in a F1 race next year? <thumbsup>

Check second video down on the page...

Odd if you think about short memories. All the press speculation about future driver lineups at Ferrari, RBR and so on. Hamilton may move to RBR, Button to Ferrari.

The one driver not mentioned at all lately is Robert Kubica.

Apparently he's moving to Renault, or Lotus or whatever it's called.

Yes but he still looks very frail. Limps very heavily and that right arm looks terribly skinny and still in a sort of cast. Seeing him in a race this year would be amazing but from what I saw, improbable.

As a musician I know that motor neuron skills start in the brain. That will be the core of Kubica's ability. The 'frailty' of muscles is very superficial.

His only issue would be wether the nerve damage left him with less control of his hand and or he was psychologically injured. Otherwise he should be capable of a full recovery.

Full recovery probably, this season, probably not. I cannot quite call myself a musician because I'm a drummer, but I did break my arm several (ok many) years ago, and once the cast came off it took me a good 4 months to get back into full playing shape. The main thing was stamina. I could play fairly well right off the bat, but fatigue set in rather quickly. I wouldn't at all be surprised if that is what we see w/ Kubica as well.

There you go, the skills are in the brain, the rest is just muscle power which a good trainer can help with.

Kubica may be a happy humoured guy, but I had no intention of putting more into it than what neutrally observed facts may give us. So let's rephrase:
"Kubica walking out to car from training session."
