    "Alongside his expected announcement as a BBC pundit, Coulthard will maintain his links with Red Bull as an advisor - although he has yet to firm up exactly what he will be doing for the team.

    "After the season we'll define exactly what that role encapsulates and what authorities or lack of I might have," he said. "Obviously as a driver you have quite an influence over the team and a direct line with everyone.

    "I won't be the race driver next year, but I'll have an opinion and a point of view on things and I know a lot of people in the team. I have a desire to still test the cars because I still get a buzz out of the technology and the development of all that.

    "I am going to use that as an opportunity to see whether it's of interest to me in the long term. My heart's in racing, and whether that's myself out there or being part of a racing team, I can still get a buzz out of that. Obviously you don't get the sweat and maybe the tears, but all that will unfold as the time passes."
