"I do not think in the future. Right now I am one hundred percent focused on return to competition and trainers to be fast again. What is clear is that I can not do anything but be a pilot," he told autosport.com .

The Spanish driver Pedro de la Rosa says he has not accepted the offer of two years with the Hispania Racing Team (HRT) "to cook the numbers" but to "push" in the World Formula One because racing is his passion and he confesses - can not do otherwise.

De la Rosa, 40 so far McLaren reserve driver, returns to racing after having replaced temporarily, in 2011, Sergio Perez in the Sauber team due to an accident in Mexico.

"I do not think in the future. Right now I am one hundred percent focused on return to competition and trainers to be fast again. What is clear is that I can not do anything but be a pilot," he told autosport.com .

De la Rosa indicated that only cease to be when you lose motivation. "It is obvious that if one day I wake up and feel no motivation, if I´ve lost a few tenths, then think of something else, but always in the automotive world because it is my passion and that´s all I can do, we must be realistic" .

"But now," he added, "The only thing I think is to compete at the highest level. I´m here to push, not to make up the numbers. I will give everything and then we´ll see."

De La Rosa still does not know who their teammate, but want to be someone who will help the team move forward. "The names we´ve heard a lot of respect I deserve. I have no problems with any of them, but do not know what personality behind those names."

"There are very fast drivers, but that is not only important, but think also of the team and how to help. That´s what I want," said De la Rosa, who will participate next month with HRT in early trials of the season in Jerez de la Frontera.
