Hispania will replace Bruno Senna for the British GP with current test and reserve driver, Sakon Yamamoto.
The new was confirmed by team principal, Colin Kolles, in the Silverstone paddock late in the evening. More details are expected in the morning before first practice.
Rumours have suggested the reason for the late switch is due to financial gains, with Yamamoto able to pay substantially more for the race seat – this is however, yet to be confirmed.
