Force India confirm Sutil and Di Resta

Force India have confirmed Adrian Sutil and Paul di Resta as their race drivers for the 2011 Formula 1 season. Also they now have Nico Hulkenberg as their test and reserve driver. The news however means that Vitantonio Liuzzi leaves the team and is most likely without a drive for this year.

Hulkenberg gets to test the car a bit in the winter tests, but did not mention if he would get to test the car in the first free practice on Grand Prix weekends, like Di Resta did last year.

The future of Liuzzi is not clear with the only remaining seat available with HRT. It could well be negotiations are on between him and HRT.
