Valtteri Bottas is hoping his team mate will be someone who can challenge him next year.
However, he admitted that he still doesn't know if he will be driving for Williams next year. He has been linked with a move to Renault, but is expected to remain with Williams.
"The one thing is it is a fact that I’m going to have a new team mate next year and it’s still not obviously confirmed if I will be with Williams or not, but yeah, new team-mate and I’ve always said and that’s how I feel, the quicker team-mate you have, it doesn’t matter who it is, as long as he’s quick it always boosts the performance of both drivers and helps the team, so that’s always good" he said. "And a team player would be nice, but obviously I have nothing to do with choosing the team-mate, it’s completely up to the team who I will be racing with so I hope everything’s okay."
Speaking of the battle over fourth place with Force India, the Finn thinks that the duel will be an interesting one because both teams are so evenly matched.
"I think it’s going to be a great battle between us and Force India, we been have really close the last six races, really depending on the track; some tracks they have their strong points and some places us," he said. "So I think overall we are very, very equal in terms of how quick the cars are so it will be just depending race by race and trying to maximise everything, getting the strategy right every time and having a good qualifying, trying to be ahead of them."
"I’m looking forward to the end of the year and it’s going to be a good fight."
