Fernando Alonso hails “legend” Robert Kubica after Le Mans triumph
Fernando Alonso paid tribute to Robert Kubica for his milestone victory in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, driving the No. 83 AF Corse-run Ferrari in the Hypercar class alongside Yifei Ye and Phil Hanson. Kubica’s triumph at Le Mans marks a significant achievement in his career since his 2008 F1 victory at the Canadian Grand Prix with BMW Sauber. Despite a rally crash in 2011 that left him with a serious arm injury, Kubica’s determination led to a successful return to F1 in 2019 and a focus on prototype sportscar racing, culminating in his recent win at Le Mans. Alonso, who won Le Mans twice with Toyota, praised Kubica’s perseverance and class, recognizing him as a legend in motorsport.
