have I missed something - I thought Sauber where confirmed on the grid for next season?

They are, but at the time when the deals were initially being done, they were up in the air.

I believe that is what was being got at...

Seven-times Formula 1 world champion Michael Schumacher will come out of retirement to race for Mercedes next year, BBC Sport understands.

The German, who will be 41 on 3 January, has signed a contract and the deal will be announced imminently.

Schumacher will partner compatriot Nico Rosberg in the team that won the drivers' and constructors' titles in 2009 in its former guise as Brawn.

His spokeswoman Sabine Kehm said she could not make any comment.

Any news on Davidson getting a drive next season?

Malt_Vinegar · 23 Dec 2009 at 21:40

Not heard anything yet...

I do hope he gets a look in. Will see what I can dig out tommorrow at work!

So there are 3 proper empty spaces, and 3 more up in the air a bit still.... Time is running out for Ant

Malt_Vinegar · 24 Dec 2009 at 17:44

I had a good scour around today, best i could come up with is that he was driving the 2009 brawn recently at a Mercedes event, so perhaps he will a race slot is out of the question...

Wouldnt surprise me to see Davidson doing the full season in FIA GT1 with Gigawave.

Kubica has confirmed he will drive for Renault this season

Changed Kubica status

Looking at that list, it is still surreal to see Michael Schumachers name up there still

Apparently Hiedfeld, Fissichella or Klien will be the other sauber driver... (none are going to be all that inspiring)

Hxc · 6 Jan 2010 at 13:34

Hiedfeld I'd say.

Heidfeld is the obvious choice. With Kamikaze in the other seat the team needs someone who can develop the car and score consistent points - Heidfeld fits the bill perfectly.

Ferrari have said that if he wanted to drive for another team he still could... a bit like Massa being a Ferrari test/development driver whilst being a Sauber race driver.
