German driver Nico Hulkenberg is staying with the Force India team for the 2015 Formula One season, the team announced on Monday.
The 27-year-old has enjoyed his strongest Grand Prix season to date this year since returning to the Silverstone-based outfit.
"It's good to confirm my plans for next season. This is a team I know extremely well and we've enjoyed a great year together with some special results," Hulkenberg said
To date this season Hulkenberg has finished in the points in 13 of the 16 grands prix, with four fifth-place finishes to his credit, comfortably outscoring team-mate Sergio Perez.
For the moment there is no word on whether the team will also retain Perez, even though the Mexican has consistently stated in numerous weeks his desire to remain.
Hulkenberg next term will be making his fifth competitive season in Formula One since making his debut with Williams in 2010.
"The team has big ambitions and I believe we can have a competitive package again next year," he said of Force India.
"We have a strong partner in Mercedes and everyone in the team is motivated and hungry for more success.
"I have a good feeling for 2015, and there is a lot to be excited about as we try to build on the results we have achieved this year."
Team owner Vijay Mallya said that everyone involved in Force India were delighted that Hulkenberg was staying with them.
"We rate him very highly and he has done a tremendous job this year by consistently picking up crucial championship points," the Indian business magnate said.
"We know him extremely well - he's a true racer and he knows how to motivate the team."
