Robert Kubica will join the Alfa Romeo Formula 1 team as a reserve driver for 2020, with his backer PKN Orlen coming on board as a “co-title sponsor”.
Kubica was linked with a simulator role at Haas and Racing Point, but will join Alfa instead.
“I am really happy to be starting this new chapter in my career as I join Alfa Romeo Racing ORLEN,” said Kubica, who raced for the team when it was known as BMW Sauber from 2006 to ’09.
During Kubica’s time with BMW Sauber, he won the 2008 Canadian Grand Prix and finished in a personal best fourth place in the that year’s drivers’ championship.
