Sutil states his preferences
Highly-rated young German insists he is staying put in 2008
Last updated: 26th November 2007
Adrian Sutil wants either Vitantonio Liuzzi or Christian Klien to partner him at Force India in 2008.
The highly-rated German has been linked with a switch to Toyota and McLaren, but is happy to stay with the team - previously known as Spyker - who were recently bought by businessmen Vijay Mallya and Michiel Mol.
"I have a valid contract with Force India for 2008 and I am not looking around elsewhere," said Sutil according to Autosport.
The 24-year-old reckons that, because the team will be bankrolled by Mallya, they will be able to go without recruiting a so-called pay driver.
"The team, under the new owner, are in the situation to choose an experienced driver and not to look for a pay driver," he explained
"In my personal opinion I think it will be decided between Klien and Liuzzi.
"Both did an excellent job recently in testing in Barcelona. Both deserve to be in F1 whereas others who are just having money should not race there."
