Nick Heidfeld, who appears on Peter Sauber's list to drive the BMW heirs, seems more attracted by the challenge offered by Mercedes. The German driver is, in any case, confident about his future in F1. “I am in talks and it is promising,” he told the Rheinischen Post newspaper.

« There are always several teams with unoccupied cockpits, He said. I naturally hope to be in a good team. The goal is to drive a car that can win races. And, for anyone familiar with F1, it is clear that Mercedes GP offers the best opportunity. In addition, it is a dream for all drivers to drive for this manufacturer. »

However, Nick Heidfeld is not the only one in the ranks and the possibility of the return of Michael Schumacher is always mentioned with insistence.
