2011 chances slim for Senna and Chandhok

For the first two Hispania Racing Team drivers, chances of securing a 2011 race seat are now slim. Chandhok lost his drive mid way during the last season and with most of the race seats now occupied, he might be contemplating a reserve and test role. Senna might opt for the same too, with HRT team principal Collin Kolles ruling out Senna as in contention for the only available race seat at HRT.

HRT had earlier confirmed that Narain Karthikeyan would be racing for them in 2011. The announcement would also mean that either Sakon Yamamoto or Christian Klien need to look elsewhere. HRT are probably looking for experienced drivers this season, unlike like last year where they started with two rookie drivers.

With the 2011 grid now clearer, the only available race seats are one at HRT and one at Force India.
