Kubica returns to the Formula 1 car

Robert Kubica was appointed as a test driver by Alfa Romeo. The team of Antonio Giovinazzi and Kimi Raikkonen have announced that the Polish driver will be behind the wheel again in the second test week.

Kubica will take to the track on Wednesday morning before handing over to Raikkonen in the afternoon. Giovinazzi then gets a full day on Thursday, before Raikkonen takes the car for its final drive before travelling to Australia for the first Grand Prix of the season.

Kubica left Formula 1 at the end of last season after scoring just one point for Williams. George Russell failed to score any points at all.
