Sebastien Bourdais has reacted furiously to reports that Sunday's German Grand Prix could be his last race in Formula One.
The French publication Auto Hebdo believes the 30-year-old will be replaced after the Nurburgring round.
"I don't know anything," Bourdais told the French language radio station RMC.
He told the reporters: "If that is the only thing that interests you then I don't have anything to say. Is that clear to everyone?
"We are at the Nurburgring, there is a race to do and that is all that counts. Since this morning I have had cameras completely stuck to me; I feel like an animal.
"This rumour, it has been going around for a year and a half," said the Frenchman, referring to the entire length of his F1 foray since switching from an ultra-successful career in American open-wheelers.
"At every race someone says this is my last race, but with Toro Rosso nothing has changed since the beginning of the season. No-one has said anything in particular to me," Bourdais added.
