Kubica explains his success

BMW Sauber F1 driver Robert Kubica is enjoying his best Formula 1 season so far. The driver from Poland has already scored 32 points in the first six rounds of the 2008 Formula One championship and finished second in the prestigious Monaco Grand Prix. According to Kubica the better results are easy to explain.

Robert achieved a second position at the Monaco Grand Prix. The strong showing in the Mediterranean Principality was the highlight of an upward trend shown by the driver from Krakow since the start of the season.

Kubica has his own explanation for the improvement on last season's performances: "Many factors have come together. If the set-up is not right then you automatically drive slower because you don't have the right grip, meaning you don't feel as secure - it is like a chain reaction. I had some very good races last year, but then there were technical problems and we didn't always have the perfect race strategy - that is all a completely different story this year."
