Sutil has several options for 2012
Adrian Sutil is not yet certain of driving in Formula 1 next season with Force India, but the German driver has stated that he has other options if the Indian team does not retain him.
The future of Adrian Sutil at Force India looks bleak; he is expected to be replaced by Nico Hülkenberg next season. At the moment, Sutil has not been confirmed with any other team, but the German driver has acknowledged that he has several leads for next season.
« At the moment, we have more than one option and we are trying to put together the best package for next year. Hopefully, we will have it settled within two weeks, » Sutil told the official Formula 1 website.
Sutil also admitted that he was very surprised not to have a contract for 2012 because he believes he had the best season of his F1 driving career.
«To be honest, I have performed very well in my last 10 races, but obviously the last three are more present in people’s minds. But it’s true that the results make my life easier and it helps my manager to sort out my future.»
Yes, I totally agree (he finds it absurd not to have a seat for 2012 after having his best career in F1). But that’s life in Formula 1 and you have to deal with it. But it doesn’t seem too bad for 2012 – we’ll see what happens.
The German driver seems set to sign with Williams for 2012, although Force India and Lotus Renault also appear to be possible options. Sutil also stated that Räikkönen’s return to F1 with LRGP had no impact on his future in F1.
