Zoom Sato pushing for a role in Formula One

Takuma Sato says he has turned down offers from outside of Formula One following the collapse in May of the Super Aguri team.

As well as his former team-mate at the defunct Japanese team, Anthony Davidson, 31-year-old Sato was a notable presence in the Silverstone paddock last weekend.

The UK-resident, who contested approaching 100 Grand Prix with Jordan, BAR and Leafield-based Super Aguri, said he is trying to resurrect his F1 career.

"There is nothing concrete yet," Sato - who last weekend raced supporters and media at a go-kart event - said, according to Switzerland's Motorsport Aktuell.

"I am speaking with some teams," he added. "I turned down some offers for Le Mans and from the USA, because I see my future in the sport at the Grand Prix."
