BMW deny Heidfeld is on his way out

BMW team boss Mario Theissen has denied reports that this year's Championship will be Nick Heidfeld's last as a BMW driver.
Heidfeld joined BMW at the beginning of the 2006 season and has enjoyed mixed success with the German manufacturer. This year, though, there has been little to smile at BMW as the team's form has taken a sharp dip.
And as a result there have been rumours in the German that Heidfeld could be dropped at the end of the season even though he's the only BMW man to have scored any points so far this year.
Theissen, however, has denied these claims.
"First of all, I haven't read it," he told Autosport. "And even if I had read it I wouldn't make any comment and wouldn't react to it. As far as our present driver line-up is concerned I am not prepared to say anything negative.
"At the end of the day we can only talk about that when we are fast again and our driver line-up for the next year is traditionally decided in September."
