We are talking about championship chances, not petty joy for the haters. Obviously the 7 titles hurt a lot, if the Finns are taking pleasure of a German kid beating an old man (for now). The point of my comment was that if the Renault improves, Kubica might be the driver who challenges for the championship the top guns, although if Nico is anything like his Dad, he might try to win it with a single victory... However, realistically Mercedes GP and Renault, although fast, benefited from the mistakes of Ferrari, McLaren-Mercedes and Red Bull and if the top three fix their problems, very quickly Rosberg and Kubica will disappear from the picture. And from past seasons I think that RBR, McLaren and Ferrari all have better development rate than the teams in Brackley and Enstone.
