In contrast to other reports, it is certain that Nick Heidfeld will leave his role as Pirelli tester development.
After the announcement of a 33-year-old joins Sauber immediately replaced by Pedro de la Rosa, there is speculation that the German Heidfeld could make his return, while the remaining races with Pirelli.
It is true that a veteran of almost 170 Grand Prix is a Pirelli tire testing for the third time this week in Jerez, but its role on Friday with the Italian brand ends.
Indeed, though not referring specifically to the Pirelli, Sauber confirmed that the new contract only Heidfeld starts on Friday after the test at Jerez and his final tour of Pirelli.
Its all been done reasonably, confirmed his manager Andre Theuerzeit Heidfeld, according to news agency DPA.
Everyone knows that, first, the driver wants to go racing, he said.
magazine Auto Motor und Sport said that the ousted de la Rosa, with years of experience as a respected principal McLaren tester, is an obvious candidate to replace Heidfeld at Pirelli.
