Rio Haryanto is confident he will finish his rookie season with the Manor outfit, having secured the necessary funding to do so.
The Indonesian driver joined the team at the start of the season but only had the required funding to secure his seat until the Hungarian Grand Prix.
However his management team have been working hard behind the scenes with sponsor Pertomina and others to secure the budget to see out the remainder of the season and according to Haryanto, that is now in place.
"That's what I've been told [by my management]," he said on Thursday.
"I'm happy. At the moment quite confident things are going to turn out well.
"I've obviously been focusing a lot on doing the best job I can and getting the results I wanted," he added. "What happens now is all down to my management, and from what I've been told, everything seems quite good."
