SAO PAULO, Brazil -- Veteran Formula One driver Rubens Barrichello says his move to the IndyCar Series depends on finding new sponsors and acknowledges he may only compete on road and street circuits.
Barrichello said Thursday that "everybody is in a hurry to try to find the money" to allow him to drive this season. He says there are only "minor details" to be discussed but the move still remains up in the air.
The 39-year-old Brazilian says it would be a great challenge to drive on an oval circuit.
Despite his mooted IndyCar move, Barrichello says in an interview with SporTV that he hasn't completely closed the door on F1.
