Force India closing in on driver line-up


Vijay Mallya is expecting to announce Force India's 2011 driver line-up within the next "few days".

With less than two weeks to go until pre-season testing gets underway, Force India is the only team that has yet to confirm either of its drivers.

But when the announcement comes, it is widely believed that Adrian Sutil will retain his seat while Paul di Resta is expected to move up to a full-time race seat.

Di Resta's promotion would leave Tonio Liuzzi without a race seat despite the Italian having a deal in place for this year's Championship.

Asked by the BBC about his 2011 line-up Mallya stated that "there are some legal loose ends to be tied up" but that he expects an announcement in the "next few days."
