Kubica shows Monte Carlo interest

Renault’s Formula One star Robert Kubica is interested in a return to the Monte Carlo Rally next year, having taken part in the event this year.

However, the Pole did not get too far as he suffered a terminal engine failure on the prologue stage that meant he was not able to take further part in proceedings. Now though, Kubica aims to complete some unfinished business by looking at taking part in the event again, at the wheel of a Renault Clio R3.

Kubica has also taken part in several national rallies in Italy and beyond this year, with some promising results. Most recently, he took a class win and third overall on the Antibes Rally in the south of France at the wheel of a Renault Clio.

"Rallying is for fun: it is a hobby and a passion," he said. "Formula One is my job, but I hope to be back because I really like it. Who knows what will happen..."
