After arriving in Singapore, Kazuki Nakajima said he is hoping to retain his Williams seat for the 2010 season.

The 24-year-old Japanese has not yet scored a single point this season and is strongly backed by Toyota, who are expected to be replaced as the Grove team's engine supplier.

"Nothing has been said yet and I hope to stay in the team ... maybe that will not happen, but I don't think this will be my last time in Singapore and I'm confident I'll be back next year," Nakajima told the Singapore newspaper Today.

Nakajima's current teammate Nico Rosberg is expected to move to either Brawn or McLaren for 2010, to almost certainly be replaced by Williams' current test driver and the newly crowned GP2 champion, Nico Hulkenberg.

"He obviously has got talent and he managed to climb up by showing speed and finding someone to back him," Nakajima of the rookie German.
