Sutil likely to stay with Force India
The 26-year-old German, who debuted for the Silverstone based squad's former guise Spyker in 2007, said at Spa-Francorchamps: "At the moment everything is open, but staying here is a very good option.
"They were my first team in formula one and I have a very strong connection with them," Sutil added, according to the German news agency SID.
Despite the progress made by Force India this year, neither Sutil nor his teammate Giancarlo Fisichella has scored a point so far.
It is believed that the Italian veteran Fisichella's seat is to be taken by the test driver Tonio Liuzzi for 2010. Fisichella told reporters his chances of staying in F1 at present are just "50-50".
Another piece of news from Belgium on Thursday is that Toro Rosso is very likely to race with an unchanged lineup comprising Ferrari engines and drivers Sebastien Buemi and Jaimie Alguersuari in 2010.
