Jun.26 (GMM) Pedro de la Rosa has shed no further light on rumours that McLaren's current test driver lineup is first in line for a Prodrive seat in 2008.
David Richards' Banbury-based team is expected to enter formula one next year with a customer car-engine package bought from McLaren and its engine partner Mercedes-Benz.
But Spaniard de la Rosa, McLaren's primary test driver alongside Gary Paffett, told the newspaper 'Diario As' that he did not know what his future held.
"Of course it is my intention to be involved in formula one also next season," the 36-year-old said, "and if I am racing then that is even better."
De la Rosa continued: "But it is necessary also be realistic. It is difficult to say if I will be (racing), but we will see."
Experts have cast doubt on the Paffett-de la Rosa-Prodrive speculation because it would leave McLaren needing to field an all-new test lineup in 2008.
