Rubens Barrichello has admitted that although there has been no contract signed between himself and Williams, he is confident that he will be with the Grove-based outfit in 2011.
“My project with Williams was not for one year only,” Barrichello told SporTV.
“I’ve been talking about my contract for a long time. I cannot announce anything, because it is not signed. But I am working on the car for next year already. I don’t see myself leaving.”
The 38-year old is the longest serving driver in the paddock and will have driven for 17 seasons at the end of 2010.
In such time, the Brazilian has started in over 300 Grand Prix and earnt over 650 points throughout his F1 career.
Despite being confident of his drive for next year, Barrichello insists that it is now down to the team to come up with the contract, “My future depends on Williams.”
