I also read he has covered enough distance to earn his FIA Superlicense again.

I have never been so happy to be so wrong. This is looking to be more and more realistic.

Wow. Good for him. Looks like he's aged quite a bit.

I hope for Kubica that Williams can survive financially in 2019. (and that Kubica is going to be succesful)
Things are looking a bit better now but main sponsor Martini backing out and private sponsor Stroll going to Force India must have hurt.
Too bad that such a historically succesful F1 team is now fighting to survive.

YAY!
SO great that Robert is returning to F1. What a road he has been down....surviving the MASSIVE shunt at Montreal....and then nearly having his arm severed and bleeding out in the middle of nowhere in Italy in the ill-fated WRC car....and then to recondition/rehabilitate to the extent that he meets FIA F1 standards....and then to just miss the Williams ride a few yrs ago....it's when he was selected as a test driver that I KNEW he would find a way into the ultimate single seater again....2019 opens the door for Robert to show his massively quick instincts....he'll be in a top-tier marque sooner than we think.
