After a couple of disappointing races Robert Kubica is hoping that the large number of Polish fans expected to attend the Hungarian Grand Prix will help cheer him onto a strong points finish.
"For sure we can expect a lot of Polish fans in Budapest," Kubica said. "The Hungarian Grand Prix is the closest race to my home country, so in some way it is my home race."
"The Hungaroring is the track where I had my first Formula One race in 2006," he added. "As a driver you always have a special relationship with the track where you had your first Grand Prix. However, it is not for these reasons alone that I like this track. For most of the lap you have some steering angle, which means you rarely get a break, and this is made worse by the fact the straights are very short."
