Pizzonia confident of drive
 
With the announcement that Jenson Button would not be joining the WilliamsF1 team in 2005 one driver who would consider his chances of a full time time in 2005 as having improved significantly would be Antonio Pizzonia.

The Brazilian driver was a test driver for the team but had filled in for Ralf Schumacher during the 2004 season, competing in four races. On the basis of his performances he certainly improve his position within the WilliamsF1 team.

Pizzonia made these comments prior to the announcement that Button would not be joining the team in 2005.

He said: "For the time being, all I have guaranteed is to remain a test driver but I am waiting to hear about my future.

"The four races that I did this year were very good for my career. I hadn't planned to race this year but I managed to score six points for the team which they needed for the Constructors' Championship.

"Thanks to these four races I am at the top of the list to race for Williams next year if Button stays at BAR."
