Jean-Louis Moncet announced yesterday during the Indian Grand Prix that Charles Pic had signed with Virgin for 2012, but the information was quickly denied by his press officer. The Frenchman, who was racing in GP2 this season, is indeed in discussions with the British team but nothing has been signed yet.<\/p>\n
And Virgin is not the only team with which negotiations are underway. Pic and Lagardere Unlimited, which supports him, are also in discussions with Team Lotus to possibly replace Jarno Trulli in 2012, and with Williams where Pic could replace Rubens Barrichello from 2012, and with Virgin where he could replace J\u00e9r\u00f4me d’Ambrosio.<\/p>\n
As of today and at this moment, no agreement has been officialized concerning Charles Pic, who is under contract with Lagard\u00e8re Unlimited and managed by Olivier Panis. Charles is still in contact with three teams – Lotus, Virgin, and Williams – each of which has certain advantages to bring a French driver back to F1!, said Muriel Belgy, the press officer of Charles Pic, to La Provence<\/i>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
