Pedro de la Rosa on Thursday said he is expecting to wait a few weeks until his plans for the 2011 season can move forward.

Sauber has confirmed that Kamui Kobayashi has retained his seat for next season, but the same it not yet true for the rookie Japanese’s 39-year-old teammate de la Rosa.

The Spanish veteran returned to the grid this season after a long period as a test driver, but insists he feels "no pressure" despite the fact his team is not yet willing to sign a new deal.

"I’m very happy with the season I’ve had," he added.

Also asked his future at Monza on Thursday was Force India’s Adrian Sutil, who has been linked with a possible move to a rival team for 2011.

Asked when his future will be known, the German said: "Hopefully soon. I don’t want to wait until December.

"I can honestly say that this (Force India) is still my top priority, I will talk first with them. In my opinion this is a team of the future.

"I’ve been here a long time, but maybe someone will make me an offer I cannot refuse," admitted Sutil.
