"We are very close to deciding and, very shortly, we will be announcing the drivers officially. At the moment not yet, but we are very near. But we still cannot confirm any names yet.

"Many drivers are in the shortlist but, please, we are not going to publish anything at the moment. All I can say that at least one of them will be Japanese."
