Jaime Alguersuari says he’s ‘sure he will be back driving in F1’ next season, further supporting his earlier hint that he’ll be on the grid in 2013.
“Soon you’ll all know where I will be driving next year. Thank you all again,” he posted on Twitter last week.
In his latest column for BBC Sport, the Spaniard revealed that he will be taking time out of his commentating role to focus on training for next year, adding that he was sure he’d be back racing.
“I have been really enjoying my commentary role this year but I won’t be going to the next three races,” wrote Alguersuari.
“It had been planned for some time. It’s better for me to prepare for next year, to keep my training up, as I’m sure I will be back driving in F1.”
The 22-year-old will be back in his commentary role for the final two races of the season – USA and Brazil.
Meanwhile he also has a Pirelli test coming up in a fortnight.
“I also have an important test with Pirelli in Paul Ricard, France, in two weeks’ time, where we are going to be deciding on the specification of next year’s wet tyres. Apart from that I will dedicate myself to training,” he concluded.
