Nick Heidfeld has revealed that🐷 a hearing will take place in three weeks time after he took action to prevent Renaul💯t replacing him with Bruno Senna.

The team confirmed that Senna will race in the events at Spa and Monza today [Thursday] while also i൩nsisting it was keen to run the Brazilian for the rest of the season, pending some 'legal issues' which are still to be re🔯solved.

Those issues revolve around what to do with Heidfeld, wh꧒o remai♓ns under contract to the team and had already said he wasn't prepared to just walk away.

Having appeared in the Spa pa♛ddock, the German faced questions from the press but refused to say much about the situati▨on because legal proceedings have now started.

"There are court proceedings so I cannot tell you much," he was quoted by former ITV-F1 commentator James Allen on his website, JamesallenonF1.com. "Each𝔍 driver wants to drive. I believe that I have a valid contract and I want to drive.

"We will see in three weeks, there is a main hearing and we will know then. I'm here with the team this weekend, I ⛎have a contract and I will♏ just do what I can do."

Shou🍎ld he be forced out of his role with Renault, Heidfeld could find his F1 career at an end given the limitedꦆ options available elsewhere.

Having joined the team at the start of the year as a replacement for Robert Kubica, the German scored a fine third place fi💞nish in Malaysia but has only just managed to double his points tally through the nine races that haveও followed, although he does sit ahead ahead of Vitaly Petrov in the championship standings.
