Kubica wants BMW focus back on him

UPDATE (GMM) BMW boss Mario Theissen has rejected driver Robert Kubica's claim that the focus of the team's attention should return to him.

After an unhappy Belgian grand prix, the Pole voiced his discontent about BMW-Sauber helping teammate Nick Heidfeld back to form while falling "asleep" in other areas.

"Maybe the priority of late for the team was a bit different from myself," he confirmed to reporters at Monza.

To the German news agency SID, Theissen denied that Heidfeld is BMW-Sauber's focus, rather than thinking about the small possibility that Kubica is still in the hunt for the 2008 title.

"It simply is not correct," the German said. "We have put a lot into Nick, but we also did that with Robert, when he was having problems last year."

Pole Robert Kubica thinks he should be top dog on the German team

09/09/08 (GMM) After an unhappy Belgian grand prix, Robert Kubica has continued to voice his discontent as F1 makes the dash this week to Monza.

The Pole struggled to capture the same attention as his resurgent BMW-Sauber teammate Nick Heidfeld at Spa-Francorchamps, and on Friday we reported that he used "harsh words" upon discovering incorrect settings on his car.

"The team has helped Nick a lot," France's sport24.com quotes Kubica as saying.

Kubica has won just 12 points from the last 5 grands prix, and while he finished sixth at Spa-Francorchamps, Heidfeld was on the podium.

"I hope that they will start to work a little for me, because these last four races, I think we have been asleep," the 23-year-old added.
