McLaren Fan wrote:Heidfeld was never really a quick driver. His game is more about being consistent, cool under pressure, and nursing the car. In other words, when races are not chaotic or particularly harsh on tyres, he will be beaten by guys with more speed than he. Also, Formula One cars are more reliable than they've ever been, so one can afford to give them a lot more punishment than the past. So, again, a guy like Kubica will shine.Think that's came with age. I remember him being super quick back in F3000 and the early years, even in Williams.
