Arrows have officially confirmed today that Pedro de la Rosa will continue driving for the team next season. A statement by the team said that De La Rosa is staying after a new sponsorship deal was agreed. De la Rosa's teammate, however, is yet to be named.

Arrows have also yet to name their test driver, but the favourite for the role is Mark Webber, who tested with the team in Spain. However, according to reports in Australia, Webber needs to raise two million USD to obtain this job. In the mean time, he has signed to race for Arrows' junior team in F3000.
