"They are still looking for me but I have rejected those offers and when they say they want my phone number to talk to me I always say that if it's to return to F1 don't bother because I'm not interested," Montoya told the EFE news agency in an interview.
"I'm very happy in NASCAR," he added. "I'm in the US with my family and to be honest it hasn't even crossed my mind to return to F1. Even if McLaren or Ferrari called me now, I wouldn't go back."
