The Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf said the 28-year-old Caterham driver’s managers Jan Paul ten Hoopen and Jeroen Schothorst are working hard on the Dutchman’s alternatives for next year.<\/p>\nGiedo van der Garde, although tipped by some to leave formula one after a single season, could keep his career on the grid in 2014.<\/p>\n
The Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf said the 28-year-old Caterham driver’s managers Jan Paul ten Hoopen and Jeroen Schothorst are working hard on the Dutchman’s alternatives for next year.<\/p>\n
The report, naming Sauber, Williams and Force India as van der Garde’s options, said ten Hoopen will be at Monza next weekend for “talking and listening”.<\/p>\n
The driver has had an often-difficult rookie campaign, but De Telegraaf said van der Garde remains strongly backed by McGregor, a Dutch fashion label.<\/p>\n
Van der Garde, however, is quiet for now.<\/p>\n
“It makes no sense for me to already be thinking about next season.\u00a0 There are still eight races to go,” he said.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, De Telegraaf said the chances of another Dutch driver, Robin Frijns, are not as bright.<\/p>\n
The report said the Swiss team Sauber decided not to take up the option on the unsponsored 22-year-old’s current contract.\u00a0 In 2013, Frijns has been the reserve driver.<\/p>\n
He commented: “I have no idea.\u00a0 I have heard nothing, I know nothing.”<\/p>\n
Former Toro Rosso driver and current Pirelli tester Jaime Alguersuari, on the other hand, has called time on his formula one career for now.<\/p>\n
Recent reports linked the young Spaniard with a move for 2014 to the premier US open-wheeler series Indycar.<\/p>\n
“I’m having a great time working for Pirelli,” he told his 160,000 followers on Twitter, “but I don’t think you guys will see me back in F1 at least for the early future.”<\/p>\n
