Sebastien Buemi on Sunday had a meeting with Sahara Force India officials, but Vijay Mallya on Monday suggested Adrian Sutil is a possible contender to replace Nico Hulkenberg in 2013.
Vijay Mallya, the Silverstone based team's co-owner and boss, said he is not certain German Hulkenberg is switching to Sauber.
"I hear from the media that Nico has signed with Sauber. He hasn't sat down with me and told me that," Vijay Mallya is quoted by the Indian Express.
But if Nico Hulkenberg does go, Mallya is confident he will not be difficult to replace.
"Yes absolutely, why not? Never forget I always have the potential of considering Sutil again. Sutil is always quick. So there are many options," he said.
On his end, Red Bull's Dr Helmut Marko seemed to confirm the possibility Sebastien Buemi is in with a shot of the Sahara Force India cockpit.
"If Buemi doesn't go to Force India," he is quoted by the Swiss newspaper Blick, "then we want to keep him. He might also do the (sports car) endurance world championship with Toyota."
Who to believe? We should know more in the coming weeks.
