After being dismissed from Scuderia Toro Rosso, S\u00e9bastien Bourdais hopes to make a return to Formula 1 in a few months with one of the new teams on the 2010 grid. Three new teams are gearing up to enter the championship. The arrival of a fourth team is highly likely with the departure of the German automobile manufacturer BMW-Sauber.<\/p>\n
Toro Rosso has decided to replace Bourdais with Jaime Alguersuari. The Frenchman now finds himself without a race seat for 2010 but insists that he will not give up on his quest to find one: “I aspire to find a place in F1,” he told the newspaper *L’\u00e9quipe*. “Since there are no in-season tests, I can be attractive to new teams.”<\/p>\n
Bourdais scored points in Australia and Monaco this year. The teams Campos Meta, Manor GP, and USF1 are all lined up to join the grids, as for BMW-Sauber, they are looking for a new buyer: \u00ab Heidfeld and Kubica will also be on the market, \u00bb continued Bourdais, admitting that this could complicate his search.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Some of the new teams have technical capabilities, but they don’t have money… that’s what makes the difference. \u00bb<\/p>\n
If the worst happens and Bourdais does not return to Formula 1, where will he spend his 2010 year? \u00ab I am under contract with Peugeot until the end of this year, \u00bb he explains regarding his duties in the context of the Le Mans race. \u00ab For next year? I don’t know, but they seemed very happy with my work at Le Mans this year. In the United States? I have always had a contact with my former team (Newman-Haas), but the problem is that they need money to run the car. It requires 5 million dollars (approximately 3.5 million euros), which is not easy to find at the moment! \u00bb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
