2011 Team line-ups start to shape up

Posted by Euan on December 2, 2010 | No Comments

The FIA have published the F1 entry list for the 2011 season. Red Bull, McLaren, Ferrari, Mercedes, and Lotus will have an unchanged driver line-up for next season. Sauber have confirmed that new driver Sergio Perez will race alongside Kamui Kobayashi. Since the announcement Williams have added Pastor Maldonado as their second driver with Rubens Barrichello in the first seat. Force India, Torro Rosso, Hispania, and the newly named Marussia Virgin Racing have yet to confirm either of their race seats. Renault, meanwhile, have confirmed that Robert Kubica will drive for them next season, but Vitaly Petrov’s position is still in doubt.

Update: Timo Glock has now announced that he will be staying at Virgin Racing next season, thereby seeing out his 2 year contract. Whether Lucas Di Grassi will drive for Virgin next season, however, is still unknown.
