Talk:Robert Kubica

message: I don't have a citation, but on ITV F1 coverage Kubica himself has said it's "Koo-Bits-Ah".
I know that Kubica's surname isn't pronunced like "Koo-Bic-Ah"...it's more like "Koo-Bits-Ah" isn't it? So in that pronounciation thing, shouldn't it be: ɹɒbət kuːbɪsæ? --Skully Collins Review Me! Please? 08:56, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: (Thanks for the quick reply ;-) )...okay and how do look like in that pronouciation thing? --Skully Collins Review Me! Please? 10:42, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

text: Watching video replay and photographs shows to me that the Toro Rosso was actually completely behind the wall.  See  The359 00:54, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, I know... I took that out several times and people keep putting it back. People should actually watch video before they click on that "Edit this page" tab. Shreditor 02:58, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Sorry, but is this level of detail really necessary? I propose that we just change this to "crashed into a wall at the next corner," and move on. If you ask me, little details like this are just unnecessarily tedious. I thought sections like these were just to give a brief overview of what happened in the season, I didn't realise they were meant to serve as a blow-by-blow analysis. Surely that section would be better off in the actual race report article. Ayrton Prostsign 11:49, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I added that because it originally said that he lost downforce because of a damaged front wing, or something equally erroneous and woolly as that. I do agree with you that the level of detail here at times can be a little excessive, but if he crashed, it's probably important to emphasise that he didn't crash due to his own error, rather that he lost steering due to his wing getting stuck under his car.

replies: text: Fair enough, that's a valid enough point. Ayrton Prostsign 14:07, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

message: In 2005 Robert Kubica won the World Series by Renault as is verifyable in RS: , . I request Cs-wolves and EeepEeep to stop pushing their original research into the article.  Dr. Loosmark  11:12, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Are you familiar with the World Series by Renault at all? It is a group of series, not an individual series. The top series, Formula Renault 3.5 Series, which Kubica was the champion of, is often refereed to in the press as simply the World Series by Renault, but that doesn't make it true. If some media outlets reported that Dario Franchitti won the IRL championship instead of the IndyCar championship would you insist on changing it? Reporting the correct thing is not original research, it is good editing. Simply regurgitating something without giving it any consideration is poor editing. EeepEeep (talk) 18:14, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  No, poor editing is pushing personal opinion without a single sources supporting it. Valentino Rossi is too refereed as the MotoGp world champion even if the MotoGP racing is composed of 3 classes the 125, 250 and 800.  Dr. Loosmark  21:39, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: How is this about "personal opinion"? I'm confused. Formula Renault 3.5 Series is a class in the World Series by Renault. That's a fact, not an opinion. Your example just further demonstrates how the press muddles these things sometimes. EeepEeep (talk) 05:53, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

text: Actually, I take that back, your example makes no sense. MotoGP is specifically the name of the 500cc class (not 800cc), so that would be correct. EeepEeep (talk) 05:58, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  Formula Renault 3.5 Series is the most important class in the World Series by Renault by far and in fact it is usually referred to as the World Series by Renault. This is why most if not all the sources say Kubica won the World Series.  Dr. Loosmark  06:14, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Edit request from Mattsonic, 16 May 2010 

message: I have reverted edits describing his chances of missing this season as "likely" and "highly likely". Tonight (the day of the accident) the surgeon in the source says that he thinks recovery will take a year but that racing drivers sometimes heal more quickly than expected. This indicates to me at least that Kubica missing the whole season is more possible than likely. I await more precise information. Britmax (talk) 23:34, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Kubica Injury

message: I have reverted a reference to this as people will see the word amputation and assume it is full amputation. Not that we should avoid the truth but I think it's too much detail for us as an encyclopedia, not a medical update service, anyway. I think we should, by staying with an accurate but general description of his injuries, avoid the A-word altogether. Britmax (talk) 19:10, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: B-class review

message: As Kubica has now participated in an official F1 test session (rather than private testing in old cars) I believe that this qualifies him to have a line added to his career summary as a Renault test driver. It is irrelevant if he maintains his position for the rest of the year, or if his position is officially recognized as the team's official test driver. He has participated in an official test session, and therefore his career summary should reflect this.Wesutf1 (talk) 09:26, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Where is the press release from the Renault team, which says that Kubica is their test driver? A 4-day test (or any test for that matter) does not mean that he is their test driver. – Sabbatino (talk) 12:52, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
