Campos: De la Rosa or Gené to race with us

Campos: De la Rosa or Gené to race with us

26 September 2009

The new-for-2010 Campos team has said that no drivers will be named until after the end of the current season. With late November pinpointed as a very earliest date for an announcement, Team Principal and former driver Adrian Campos remains chiefly hushed over choices although a Spanish driver is a highly probable option.

With Barcelona's Pedro de la Rosa long since tipped as a Campos pilot for next year, the Team Principal spoke of the team's situation. "We want to have the drivers decided as soon as possible but not before the middle of November," he explained to Autosport.

"It's not easy because the nationalities of the drivers are very important, regarding the repercussions in every country - for the sponsors and many things. There are many things that we have to take care of."

However, Adrian does not hide the fact that current McLaren tester de la Rosa is an obvious option. "He's our first choice," Campos commented of the man who last raced in 2006. "It will be him or Marc Gené but we have to wait and see what happens in the next two or three weeks."
