Pedro de la Rosa is expected to be Kamui Kobayashi's teammate at Sauber in 2010, according to Blick.

The Swiss daily newspaper, which has close ties to the Peter Sauber-led team, said the news is likely to be confirmed soon barring "an earthquake in Hinwil".

Spaniard de la Rosa, who turns 39 next month already lives in Zurich only a short drive from Sauber's team base. He last raced full-time in 2002 with Jaguar. He has since been McLaren's main test and reserve driver, and the El Mundo newspaper reported recently the British team had given him until the last day of 2009 to decide his F1 role for 2010.

The Swiss weekly NZZ am Sonntag Sunday quoted Peter Sauber as admitting only that "an experienced man" with "new knowledge for the team" has been signed to partner Kobayashi in 2010.

He also all but confirmed that Nick Heidfeld is not the driver in question.
