RUMOUR: Kubica named as Hartley-replacement

A rumour has come out that Robert Kubica is among the drivers who are being lined up to replace Brendon Hartley at Toro Rosso, reports Auto Hebdo.

Hartley has been under a lot of pressure this year at Toro Rosso already, as the Kiwi has not enjoyed a good first full campaign for Toro Rosso. Helmut Marko already said that Hartley's situation is far from ideal, but he did say that he won't just dismiss the Kiwi in the middle of the season.

However, rumours of Hartley being replaced have become louder and louder.

Pascal Wehrlein was already mentioned as a potential replacement, but Robert Kubica has been added to the shortlist according to Auto Hebdo.

Do you think that the rumour has any truth to it?
