Kubica hopes to do a Raikkonen

FUJI: The focus might be on Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa but Robert Kubica can also win the world title and he wants BMW Sauber make a big push in the closing stages of the season.

The Polish driver remains in contention on 72 points - 12 behind Hamilton and seven adrift of Massa with 20 points at stake in the last two races in China and Brazil. After finishing second in Japan on Sunday behind Fernando Alonso while Hamilton and Massa failed to shore up their advantage, Kubica said anything was now possible.
“We didn’t improve a lot lately with the car, so this didn’t help me but still, I’m 12 points behind the leader,” he said. “In the last two races everything is possible. Over the last three races - mostly apparent here - it shows that everything can be possible. In Monza we had changeable conditions. I started eleventh, I finished third. In Singapore I would easily have finished on the podium. My race there was ruined by safety cars, so it’s changeable, Kubica said.

“We have to be there and I hope this is a good boost for the last two races and I hope we can find a few tenths which will help me in the battle,” he added.

The next race is in China on Sunday.
