Zoom One more year with BMW for Kubica?

Robert Kubica is believed to have penned a one-year extension to his contract to race with BMW Sauber in 2009, the British newspaper Daily Telegraph on Tuesday said.

The London-based publication speculates that the news, which is yet to be confirmed officially, could pave the way for the Pole to move on to Ferrari a season later.

At Valencia on Sunday, team boss Mario Theissen suggested that he would "prefer" longer term agreements with his top drivers.

The Daily Telegraph said Theissen wanted a new three-year deal with Kubica.

Theissen at Valencia also revealed that BMW Sauber will confirm its full 2009 driver lineup "between now and the end of the season."
