Senna close to F1

Bruno Senna, GP2 Series vice-champion in 2008, continues to work on his arrival in Formula 1. Last winter, Ayrton Senna's nephew almost joined Brawn GP (ex-Honda) but Ross Brawn ultimately bet on the renewal of Rubens Barrichello.

But, at 26, the Brazilian knows that he no longer has time to waste, while the younger generation, Nico Hulkenberg in the lead, is ready to invest in Formula 1. Bruno Senna therefore continues to discuss with the team bosses. “ Negotiations progress with Campos », attests the Brazilian to the BBC.

« It is more likely that I will join one of the new teams in 2010, continues the nephew of the triple world champion. We are close to an agreement to arrive in F1. » If he wants to find a seat in the premier single-seater category, Bruno Senna does not want to spend his year at the back of the grid. “ I am looking for a team that has the potential to have good results and show some consistency. »

However, despite his desire to join a competitive team, the Brazilian knows that the priority is to find an available seat. “ It is essential that I am in Formula 1 next year, because it might be over if it doesn't happen there. The possibilities are greater with the new stables. I have good proposals on the table and it seems to me that an agreement is on the right track. I can't wait to race next year. »
