Senna: I'm still trying to find 2012 seat

11 December 2011

Bruno Senna has refused to fall into a state of negativity over his future in Formula 1, despite being replaced by reigning GP2 Champion Romain Grosjean at Lotus Renault GP. The Brazilian says he is still trying to secure a seat for the 2012 campaign, with realistic full-time spaces potentially available at Williams and HRT F1.

"I don't know yet - I'm still working on next season, but as I said I think it's looking much better than last season at this same time, so let's hope we can have good news," Senna is quoted as saying by The Norwich Advertiser. "It's difficult to say what's going to happen, but I'll always have Lotus in my heart."

Looking back at his second stint in the sport, which lasted for a total of eight races, Senna sent out a message of appreciation to the Renault squad for giving him ‘a great chance’ to showcase his talent.

"It has been pretty amazing to be honest," he added, having scored his first ever points at Monza. "I mean, just to get a real chance in Formula 1, and these guys gave me that chance to be in a much better position than I was at this time last year.

"They gave me a great chance to prove what I can do and on quite a few occasions I have been very competitive, so it's good to know that in a competitive car I can turn it out in Formula 1 and I think I'm looking forward to next year."
