Like when Heidfeld was leading the Canadian GP and the team ordered him to let Kubica through?
Well, that's how Kubica got his great result, in all honesty he's got nothing to brag about.
Obviously a Grand Prix victory is the best way to put yourself on the map, but I wasn't referring to one race. When the BMW was a front-runner, it was the relative new boy Kubica who got himself involved in the title fight and got himself noticed, not Heidfeld. Therefore it is no surprise to me that people regard Kubica as a potential star and Heidfeld as merely solid and reliable.
