Impressive rookie Adrian Sutil says he will stay at the Spyker team next year.
Despite being new to formula one in 2007, the 24-year-old German has so far outperformed his experienced teammate Christijan Albers.
In an interview with Kicker magazine, Sutil said his goal for this season was to continue to set the pace for Dutchman Albers and then rise into a top team “at some point” in the future.
But he explained: “I have a long term contract with Spyker and next year I will still be here.”
Sutil boasted that, with his performances hidden at the rear of the grid, he does not believe that his close friend, former F3 teammate and fellow rookie Lewis Hamilton is a better driver.
He said: “I am not jealous, but in F1, 70 per cent of your performance comes from your car.
“And if I was driving the McLaren, I am certain that I could show that I am just as fast as him.”
