David Coulthard has confirmed that he will retire from Formula 1 racing at the end of the 2008 season.
I will be sorry to see him go.
Quotes from ITV.com
"I would like to announce today my decision to retire from racing in Formula 1 at the end of this season," said Coulthard in a statement issued at Silverstone."
"I will remain actively involved in the sport as a consultant to Red Bull Racing, focusing on testing and development of the cars.
"I am proud of my work at Red Bull Racing and will continue to race with the same focus until the last lap in Brazil.
"Thereafter I will continue to help the team develop and move towards their ultimate goal of winning races."
"My decision to retire was taken earlier in the year and is based on a desire to stop while I am still competitive and enjoying the immense challenge that grand prix driving represents," Coulthard explained.
"I also have the desire to look for new challenges within the sport.
"The decision to make this announcement at the British GP should be an obvious one for all to understand, as I have achieved two of my thirteen F1 victories at Silverstone and I am a member of the British Racing Drivers' Club, which hosts this event."
