Esteban Gutierrez has signed a new deal with Formula 1 team Sauber.
The 22-year-old Mexican has been trusted behind the wheel for 2014 despite scoring just six points in a difficult debut season.
"I am happy to be able to continue as a driver for the Sauber F1 team," EuroSport quotes him as saying. "It was a steep learning curve last season, but by working closely with the team I was able to improve continuously.
"It will be my fourth year with the team, the second as a racing driver, and I feel comfortable in taking the next step.
"The technical challenges in 2014 will be massive. Therefore, it will be even more important to know well the people you are working with. I will do my very best to improve even more and support the team the best way I can."
Sauber teammate Niko Hulkenberg scored 51 points this year.
