Barcelona: Italian Giancarlo Fisichella expects to know within the next month whether he is staying at Formula One champions Renault beyond the end of the season.
"I would like to stay with the team," he said at the Spanish Grand Prix on Thursday. "I think around Monte Carlo or Silverstone we know if I stay here or not."
The Monaco Grand Prix is on May 28 with Silverstone following on June 11. Teammate and world champion Fernando Alonso has already announced he is leaving to join McLaren next year, leaving Renault with at least one seat to fill.
Asked about a recent German magazine report suggesting the team were interested in signing McLaren's Kimi Raikkonen, Fisichella said he had heard the story but had no idea.
"Kimi has three options," he added. "To stay at McLaren, go to Ferrari or come here to Renault. I don't know."
Fisichella won this year's Malaysian Grand Prix but has struggled once again with bad luck and is fourth in the championship after five races with 18 points compared to Alonso's 44.
