Kubica’s rollercoaster journey from F1 to Le Mans victory

Former F1 driver Robert Kubica has achieved a significant milestone, claiming his debut victory at the prestigious 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans. Partnering Phil Hanson and Yifei Ye in the #83 AF Corse Ferrari 499P, the Pole drove a remarkable race, including the final 59 laps without a drinks bottle. This triumph marks another incredible chapter in Kubica's rollercoaster career, which has seen dramatic highs, including an F1 win in 2008, and profound lows, such as his career-threatening rally crash in 2011. His remarkable resilience saw him return to F1 in 2019 and now, to endurance racing glory, cementing his legacy as a true motorsport fighter.
