Grosjean was never worried over 2019 future

Romain Grosjean has insisted that he was never concerned over his future at Haas for the 2019 season.

Grosjean has recently signed a new contract with the American team - which has confirmed him and his team-mate Kevin Magnussen will be driving for Haas next season.

However, it didn't always look this straightforward for the French driver after a torrid start to the season, crashing in consecutive races in Azerbaijan and Spain.

Grosjean, though, insisted that he has always had confidence in himself - knowing his luck would change.

"I don't want this to sound wrong but I was never worried that I wouldn't be here next year because at one point after Silverstone I knew it couldn't keep going that way," Grosjean admitted to RaceFans.

"I knew I had the solution somewhere and I knew I could bounce back and if I was bouncing back I would stay. I thought Germany was the point and I was good then I knew the team would see and we would both work it through."

Grosjean believes that despite having confidence in his own abilities, he knew that the poor start to the season had to stop, and pretty quickly...

"If I had kept going as early on it wouldn't have worked but from the point I knew exactly what I needed to do and how things were going to be then I was convinced things would go in a positive way," Grosjean concluded.
