De la Rosa, 43 and a former long-time McLaren test driver, would also be yet another high-profile Ferrari departure as the beleaguered Maranello marque sweeps its old era clean.

He said at a Santander sponsor event this week: “I’m sorry, but I cannot talk about it. “I don’t know what I’m doing yet,” de la Rosa is quoted by Speed Week. “I am used to nibbling on my Christmas nougat without knowing what I am doing the next year,” he smiled. When asked what his preference would be for 2015, de la Rosa said tellingly: “I like to work with the best — with champions. “Do not forget that Sebastian Vettel is also a world champion,” he noted.
