Romain Grosjean says he has made a decision on where he will drive in 2016, amid speculation he could move to Haas.

The Lotus driver has been linked with a move as a proposed Renault takeover of his current team drags on. Grosjean has previously said the uncertainty of Lotus' future was hurting its chances of being competitive this season, having already struggled to score points in 2014.

Asked about his future at Lotus and whether he would consider a switch to Haas - which is looking for an experienced driver alongside Esteban Gutierrez - Grosjean replied: "I think the other thing I can tell you is that my decision is… I’ve made my decision.

"Everything is clear in my head and I know what’s going to happen for me in the future – but if you don’t mind I won’t tell you any more."

Gene Haas had been interested in signing either Grosjean or Nico Hulkenberg as one his team's drivers for 2016, but told F1i in Monza he would only take a driver from another team if he was "leaving a sinking ship".
