Question: Who is your dream date?

Robert Kubica: There are so many sports people that I have a huge respect for, so I would have to name so many, but to call them ‘dream dates’ would be a bit much. And I am not into that Hollywood thing about meeting stars.

Question: Which film last made you cry?

Robert Kubica: I am not a film guy. I even cannot remember when I was last at the movies or watched a film from beginning to end on the TV.

Question: What are you afraid of?

Robert Kubica: Deep water. In the middle of the sea I don’t feel comfortable. And helicopters as well. They are not my thing.

Question: What is your favourite way to relax?

Robert Kubica: Just chilling out at home - when I am at home. Doing very little and hanging out in front of the TV. I just chill out in a simple way.

Question: Name five things that you hate?

Robert Kubica: Cars which are difficult to drive, traffic, milk, butter and people who are late.

Question: Who were your childhood heroes?

Robert Kubica: When I was karting it was a kart driver by the name of Daniel Rossi. He was the guy I had posters of on the walls of my room.

Question: What was your worst buy?

Robert Kubica: Oh, I have not bought many things actually. Lately I bought a cell phone and used it for exactly half an hour and then I realized that it was a nuisance.

Question: What’s the most embarrassing mistake you’ve ever made?

Robert Kubica: There’s nothing particular that I remember. And if there was then I’d try to learn from it and then it would stop being embarrassing. When I think back there have never been big negative moments in my life. I think I was always within the rules of society and my surroundings.

Question: What is the best thing you can cook?

Robert Kubica: I frequently cooked for myself when I was in karting. Simple things, like barbecue, always taste much better than in a restaurant. It’s probably because you have invested so much time preparing it that you don’t dare to not like it.

Question: When was the last time you were really angry?

Robert Kubica: Furious? That’s not me. I was upset in Silverstone and Budapest, but then things like that happen. I am probably a well-tempered person.
