Theoretically, with only three seats left to fill for next season \u2013 one at Caterham, one at Marussia, and the last one at Force India \u2013 Kamui Kobayashi seems to have no chance of securing one for 2013.<\/p>\n

This is what he revealed Monday evening on his website: \u00ab I was able to bring in a minimum budget of 8 million euros. Considering the short amount of time I had, it’s a massive response that proves there is great potential with Japanese companies. Unfortunately, time is too short, and I am not able to secure myself a competitive seat in Formula 1 for 2013. \u00bb<\/p>\n

The Japanese driver, who has certainly not underperformed this season with Sauber, is, of course, very disappointed with this outcome: \u00ab I have to admit that it’s very sad and I’m sorry for the fans and Japanese companies that have supported me. But I am still confident about making it in 2014. \u00bb<\/p>\n

The funding obtained by Kobayashi will help him secure a seat in 2014. This is his choice as he does not wish to turn, in the short term, to another discipline: \u00ab I am starting to look at what is the best option for 2013 and also for 2014. My main priority is to secure a seat in Formula 1 in 2014. I have no interest in racing in other categories. I will make an announcement as soon as I have made a decision for 2013. \u00bb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
