Feb.21 (GMM) Adrian Sutil insists he is "not nervous" ahead of his test with Force India on Thursday.
Billed by the media as a 'shootout' for the last race seat in 2013, German Sutil will drive the VJM06 at Barcelona a day before the other hot contender, Jules Bianchi, tests on Friday."I'm pleased to finally be back on a formula one track," Sutil, who bowed out of F1 after his assault conviction of 2011, is quoted by the DPA news agency."It's quite a while ago since Brazil 2011. The anticipation is there, but I'm not nervous or anything."I don't think I have to prove something to the team," said Sutil, who spent his entire F1 career with the Silverstone based outfit."I don't know if this is really a fight for the (race) cockpit, so that's why I'm not worried."He's not worried, but 30-year-old Sutil does know that Thursday is an important moment."I think it's my last chance to really have a future in formula one," he acknowledged. "I think that with another year of waiting, the train will have departed."Then I would have to think about something else. But I'm also experienced enough that I can only do what I always do, which is the best I can."Germany's Auto Motor und Sport claims that Sutil actually reached agreement about 2013 with Force India back in December, before the negotiations between the Ferrari-linked Jules Bianchi became serious.Sutil's manager Manfred Zimmermann said: "We do not blame the team. They have always treated us fairly."
