Senna to enter F1 with Campos

Bruno Senna, nephew of Formula One legend Ayrton, has been confirmed as making his race debut with the new Campos Meta team next year. Campos Chief Executive Rodriguez de Castro said: "It's an extraordinary honour for the Senna name to be returning to Formula One."

With rumours of the news having come mostly from messages on Bruno's personal Twitter account on Friday, Campos confirmed that the speculation was true as the weekend began.

Senna, 2008 GP2 runner-up, tested with Honda last year, shortly before the Japanese car manufacturer announced that it would be pulling out of the sport.

'I'd like to thank God, my family, friends and all of my supporters! Thanks,' Bruno wrote on Twitter.
