Yamamoto to replace Chandhok for second time

Tuesday 27th July 2010, 19:15  

Sakon Yamamoto will continue to race for Hispania at the Hungarian GP, replacing Karun Chandhok for a second time.

The Japanese driver replaced Bruno Senna at the last minute for the British GP at Silverstone a few weeks ago, in a move which angered some fans and stirred up some odd rumours.

He then replaced Chandhok at the German GP - a move almost certainly fuelled by money.

Yamamoto is looking forward to his third race of 2010 having drove the circuit in various formulae.

"I can't wait to go back to the Hungaroring as I know the circuit already very well from my Formula 1 races with Super Aguri, Spyker F1 and with ART in GP2 series," he said in a team preview.
