Senna set for Campos drive in 2010

About an hour ago, Bruno Senna “tweeted” the following:

“I’d like to thank God, my family, friends and all of my supporters! Thanks”
“Gostaria de agradecer a Deus,minha familia, amigos e toda torcida de voces pela forca”

That makes it official: The nephew of legend Ayrton Senna will be on the 2010 grid, driving for Campos.

[Huh. Funny. I just checked the Autosport story, which confirms it, and they are leading with the "Tweets," too. Swear I went there before I looked!]

Here’s what Autosport is adding:

Bruno Senna has confirmed that he has secured a Formula 1 deal for next season – with an announcement about his move to Campos Grand Prix expected imminently.

The Brazilian has been locked in negotiations with several teams about a deal for 2010, but there has been mounting speculation in Abu Dhabi that he finally signed a contract to join the new Campos team in the last few days.

Todd sent me a note that Bruno may be partnered with Pedro de la Rosa. I’m still hoping for an all-Brazilian team.

With Nelson Piquet Jr.

More to come as this one unfolds — when it unfolds.
