Rosberg, Nakajima to remain with F1 team Williams for 2009

LONDON -- Nico Rosberg and Kazuki Nakajima will again drive for Williams next year and Nico Hulkenberg will test drive for the Formula One team.

"I am delighted we are able to maintain continuity with our drivers going into 2009," team principal Frank Williams said Wednesday. "Nico Rosberg continues to be one of the most capable drivers in the sport. Kazuki is getting stronger all the time and has more to offer and Nico Hulkenberg is developing well."

Rosberg, driving for Williams since 2006, celebrated a career-best second place last weekend in the Singapore Grand Prix. It was his second career podium after a third at the season-opening Australian GP. He finished 17th overall in 2006, ninth last year, and is 12th in the current championship with 17 points.

Nakajima made his F1 debut in the last race of 2007, and has earned points in four of the 15 races this year. He's 15th with nine points.
