Rossi optimistic about Manor's seat - Alexander Rossi thinks his chances of returning to the Formula One starting line-up are pretty good. He hopes to find a solution within the next two weeks. The only two remaining vacancies in the 1 season are available at Marussia, which will race as Manor Racing this year. The American racer is already connected to the team, having competed for them five times last year. He first sat in a race car in Singapore.
“We talk every day. The deadline for concluding the conversation is in a few weeks, when it will be tested in Barcelona. In this sport, sometimes it is necessary to push things forward and I am used to that. I wish it wouldn’t take too long. In addition, I have to say that I am optimistic about the coordination, ”Rossi said.
Manor expects to take important steps forward this year after replacing many staff and signing an agreement with Mercedes on powertrains. In addition to Rossi, the team is also in talks with Indonesian Rio Haryant, who has spent the past two seasons in the GP2 series, where he won three times in 2015 and secured five podium finishes. He finished fourth overall, two places behind Rossi.
