BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen previously stated to announce the 2009 driver line-up at the end of the current season and the team sticks with this explanation despite numerous rumours in the paddock. According to the rumours, BMW Sauber would become the new team of double World Champion Fernando Alonso. In the past weeks, the press also reported that Robert Kubica already signed a deal with the Hinwil-based team for 2009.

Mario Theissen once again stated: "At the end of the season we will announce our driver pairing for the coming year. There has been a lot of speculation regarding this issue in recent weeks, and at Monza new rumours were circulating in the paddock. Nonetheless, we won't take part in these speculations but will simply take our time in making our decision."
