Mercedes' Norbert Haug was also giving little away when he spoke with reporters on Tuesday, reiterating that the German marque is keen to sign up a German driver, but not divulging whether those plans are for McLaren or Brawn. At a sponsor event in Munich earlier this week, Rosberg answered "no comment" three times: when asked whether he is going to leave Williams, when asked if Jenson Button's plans will affect his, and when asked if he thinks Rubens Barrichello would be a good signing for his current Grove based employer. All he would say is that in 2010 he expects a "winning car". "I have now been in formula one for four years and it would be great if I could now make the step to a winning car and perhaps even drive for the 2010 title. "At the moment I am in very good spirits about this goal," said the 24-year-old. Pressed to elaborate on his expectations for a "winning car", Rosberg confirmed only that he expects the top four teams of 2009 - Brawn, Red Bull, McLaren and Ferrari - to still be in charge next season. Williams cannot finish the 2009 constructors' championship higher than sixth. Rosberg repeated his expectations for a winning 2010 seat at a sponsor event at the Dubai Autodrome on Wednesday. "Things are looking very good for next year," he told the Middle Eastern website yallaf1.com. "I cannot tell you who I will driving for but I can say that next year I aim to win races," he added.
