Japan’s Kamui Kobayashi will stay with Sauber next season but his teammate remains undecided, the Swiss-based Formula One team said on Tuesday.
The rookie, who turns 24 next Monday after the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, has scored most of Sauber’s points this season with a best result of sixth place at the British Grand Prix. Sauber said an announcement about the team’s second driver, currently Spanish veteran Pedro de la Rosa, would be made later in the year. De la Rosa has scored just six points to Kobayashi’s 21 from 13 races so far. ”We enjoy having our rookie as part of the team, both as a driver and a person,” said team principal Peter Sauber in a statement. “We never had any doubts about working with him again in 2011. Kamui has definitely fulfilled our expectations in terms of his speed and fighting spirit,” added the Swiss. “Plus, his work with the engineers and his technical understanding has also developed very well.”
