With some rain, a pile up taking out some of the leaders and some luck, then yes. The car isn't quick enough, and while the team has made some good calls in the race, the car isn't up to fighting for podiums.

Cheers, everybody,

sure, it needs some luck to get a podium but i really think he can get into q3, the car isn't that bad at certain tracks. Suzuka should suit them and combined with his knowledge of the circuit he could spring a surprise.

He needs a better car first.

Disappointing, by staying at Sauber his career will stagnate, and his momentum will die down.

With the right combination, of track layout, good qualifying and a mega start which he's very capable of, it is possible for him to be on the podium. It would be like winning a race if he was able to do that in this years Sauber though. I just hope next year they will give him a much better car. He's got the talent and temperament I'm sure he'll be even driver next season. Really glad to see somebody showing faith in him. Thank goodness Peter Sauber came back .

Only if kamikazi Vettel manages to take out both ferraris, both mclarens and webber in the same crash maybe. would be between him, kubica and sutil.

I think Suzuka could be the track for his podium. Its got all the right ingredients for him to do it and hes a good enough driver to seize it if its there!! But the car? I'm not so sure

What rubbish most of these dumb comments are. With the Russian Petrov, Kobayashi is the most exciting new driver out there. He wants to win,
thats the best part. Nothing else matters.

I forgot about Petrov thanks Simon. Agree with you about Kamui and Vitaly being most exciting new drivers but need to be in better teams to challenge for honours and at the moment the Renault and Sauber cars arn't in the 3 big teams league so will have to settle for the lesser placings unless something wierd happens (torrential downpour in Q, Brainless Driver (SV) etc)

I doubt the car can make it onto the podium on pace alone, but then neither can the Mercedes and they've done it. But it will take a great drive, mega calls and some front runners hitting problems to happen. As Paul Stoddart said, however, "F1 is 'if' spelled backwards".
